"Those at Harvard responsible for this state of affairs should be utterly ashamed of themselves."

I do not mean to contradict Prof Loury, but if there's one thing we've learned in the past 5-10 years it is that our elite class in academia, media, finance, govt, etc etc, have no shame, no dignity, no integrity, no principles (at least none they wouldn't exchange if needed), no larger sense of responsibility or obligation to anything but their status, money and careers.

Their only real belief is in their self-evident intellectual and moral superiority, which they believe gives them the divine right to rule unimpeded.

I hate to sound overheated, but we now live in a country where the professors denounce intellectual freedom, the journalists denounce free speech, and the leaders of all our cultural institutions denounce our culture and believe they have the right to dismantle all of it.

They may not quite yet be the Ancien Regime in 1789, but they're getting close.

I saw this documentary a few days ago when it was first released, and it is great. It displays the truth about how the race industry keeps people employed in politics, entertainment, business, and academia.

What Glenn Loury and John McWhorter speak against during their bi-weekly episodes is not just a narrative that's over a century old. Meaning white supremacy, and racial struggles for blacks. It's a business Glenn and John are up against. So when they reveal the truth, they are going up against the livelihoods of their opponents. That is the trouble that Roland Fryer got himself into.

I've spoken about my vendetta analogy countless times on this site. There will always be a group of black people who have a monolithic view of what it means to be black. They define themselves with a vendetta against whites because of past sins. They also hold a grudge against blacks who don't agree with them. And many of these people with a narrow mindset, are leaders in the fields I mentioned above. They profit from their vendetta at the expense of other black people.

But there will always be another gang of blacks who oppose the ones who still live like it's a hundred years ago. Both sides feud while the perception of the culture takes a huge hit.

War cost something. It's not for free. Rob Montz's documentary displays that black kids are paying the price. It's sad, but it is the reality we live in. As the war continues, people can save as many kids as possible through philanthropy and scholarship programs. But this feud within black culture will always continue.

I welcome anyone to reply.
