Good and insightful stuff from McWhorter. Not so far away from most of my cringeworthy white boy rantings about our cultural ideas about race.

Sure.

Let me know when it happens then. It'd be great.

This presents an interesting case study and test for my EWPW&FM hypothesis. So far the FM contingent has responded to that thread as predicted. No word yet from the EWPW contingent. Those who adhere to neither category acknowledge that the essay makes sense, but that it's social suicide to say any of it out loud.

Remind me again what these stand for?
