Ammo Grrrll has a few thoughts about THE LEAST INTERESTING THING. She writes:

I am so sick of the fifty-year “conversation” (read: tedious harangue) on Race. But since Eric Holder called me a coward for failing to converse on race, let me weigh in. There will be three columns in a row on the subject.

Is there anything LESS interesting about a person than his skin color? But this is what decades of racial pigeonholing has wrought – 24/7 obsession with the least important marker for any real insight into other human beings. Especially, as The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King pointed out a mere 53 years ago, the content of their character.

I walk the aisles of the local Walmart in my Dusty Little Village in Arizona. Race is a sillier concept here than anywhere I have ever lived. Intermarriage must be near-universal. Very few people except some Geezer-Americans and recently-arrived Mexicans can fit into one little checked box on a government race-monitoring form.

(Snip)

But the leftists insist it’s 1948 in America and we’re always in danger of reverting to White Only bathrooms or worse. Remember the ever-charming Whoopi Goldberg walking off The View when John McCain was ambushed there, accusing him of intending to send her “back” to a plantation. Right. She’s picked a lot of cotton in her privileged life. Donald would have told her that the only cotton she’d seen was in a new bottle of Midol. And why not? Whom did it impress for Senator McCain to just sit there and take it?

What, pray tell, have we got to show for all this obsession with color? Surely we can’t say aloud that diversity at school or work is a chance for non-white people to observe the habits of successful middle-class white people and learn something. Horrors, just get that racist concept out of your head right now! Indeed, Western Civilization itself offers nothing of value which is why Stanford voted overwhelmingly to remove its required study!

(Snip)

hese Other express no interest whatsoever in getting to know white students as people, as friends, unless you count running through the college library screaming “F you, white b” as a good ice-breaker. Heck, the Other can’t even abide our eating the same food they like. The “no race-mingling” cretins of a bygone era have morphed into the Separateness and Victimhood Forever bigots of the entitlement left. Plus ça change and so forth…
