Students at the embattled Evergreen State College, which made national headlines last year after it hosted an event that asked white people not to come on campus for a “Day of Absence,”

Uh, no, excuse me, but that isn't what made them infamous. Threatening to kill biology Professors Bret Weinstein and his wife Heather Heying for objecting - that's what made the school infamous. And considerably poorer, too, once the lawsuits were settled.

I doubt seriously if any of these young stillborn intellects have any grasp on racism or care to. This isn't just about that, it's about power. And how, precisely, this is any different from apartheid is a little vague.

Well, to be nitpicky, under apartheid the crime rates were lower, blacks received better health care and had lower infant mortality rates, there weren’t many ongoing epidemics of things like AIDS (with an illiterate president who says “just take a shower” as a preventative), the power supply was reliable, ditto clean running water. That’s just a few of the more obvious differences.
