I've never read campus reform. Is it a conservative news source that reveals just how crazy the leftists are in regard to education? Sounds like something worth checking out.....thanks for alerting me to its existence.


And to answer your question....NO.

I guess our definitions of "prominent writer" differ greatly.

Who wrote the material you studied?

Me? I grew up with the classics.
Mark Twain- Tom Sawyer
O'Henry - The ransom of Red Chief
Poe- The tell Tale Heart
Just to name a few.
I am in a mixed race marriage with 2 beautiful daughters and a son I adopted.
I guess the classics were a bad influence on me.
When people handle issues properly from the beginning, it reduces the risk of issues like this.

See Rwanda. The different ethnicities deemed themselves different races and as we know, the genocide occurred. Afterward, all references to ethnicity were abolished. The country devoted itself to its betterment. Today Rwanda is better than ever. It’s capital city is one of the cleanest cities in the world.

The U.S. would have been better off it had handled its wrongdoing early on. This and other issues are the result of not doing so. Instead you have sorts of extremes, such as this woman who obviously despises what made her.

I’m of mixed heritage and married a different mix than myself as well. I enjoy classics from various cultures.

This lady is a freelance writer from LA. Not an academician nor a "prominent writer".

Her premise is that none of the traditional female writers and writers of color get exposure in school curriculum because they are crowded out by the works of white males.

BFD.

Maybe if you don't like what you have to read, you shouldn't go to college...or at a minimum, not take that class.

I can't believe it! This is a thread on the extent to which leftists have gone with their anti-white hatred, and a liberal races in to blame the United Statss of America.

Stop defending the bad behavior of racists.

Such a typical liberal retort. When one of the leftists reveals just how crazy they're getting, another leftist - not quite as bad but with no defense - says she's an outlier. She represents how extreme (and yes, racist) far-leftists are in this country, and how they are brainwashing our children into the white-man-bad mindset.
