Rubén Hinojosa

Let us stipulate, for starters, as Rep. Rubén Hinojosa (D-Texas), chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, did, that claiming differences in IQ based on ethnicity is racist. Let us further acknowledge that Jason Richwine of the Heritage Foundation wrote in his 2009 Harvard doctoral dissertation that “the average IQ of immigrants in the United States is substantially lower than that of the white native population, and the difference is likely to persist over several generations.”

Anti-Semitic teacher is out at fashion school but not because of student protest

John Galliano’Controversial fashion designer John Galliano, who was fired from his post as creative director at Christian Dior in 2011 following an anti-Semitic rant, will not be teaching a workshop at Parsons The New School of Design in New York City after all, the school announced today. But it won’t be because Jewish students sounded off in opposition to remarks Galliano had made that led to his ouster from the Paris design firm, which included, “I love Hitler. Your forefathers would be [expletive] gassed, and [expletive] dead.”

Mel Watt nomination adds to myth of Obama’s post-racial America

His drunken anti-Semitic ravings two years ago were enough to get him fired from a high-profile job and almost landed him in a Paris jail.

NY school district apologizes for asking students to ‘argue Jews are evil’

Albany High School

Albany High School

Try to imagine a high school tasking its students with making a logical argument to support the proposition that black people are evil. If you find that thought experiment too perverse even to imagine, substitute Jews for blacks, and there’s no need to use your imagination at all. It really happened, at a school in upstate New York.

Surprise! MSNBC’s Touré founded an anti-white student newspaper

ToureBesides working for MSNBC, hosts Melissa Harris-Perry and Touré have something else in common: Both are contemptuous of people of “pallor.” Harris-Perry, who was born to a white mother, disavows her heritage, stating, “I’ve never thought of myself as biracial. I’m black.” And Touré, while in college at Emory University between 1989 and 1992, founded a student newspaper dedicated to “black liberation theology,” with all that implies.
