Here's my
favorite funny story about the
inherent wickedness of
diversity:
Back when I was a
freshman or
sophomore in
college, some local
bigot in my old
hometown showed up at one of the
school board meetings to raise a
fuss over the fact that the
high school offered a
course in
World Literature. He had written up a rant about
the Evils of Diversity and
the Evils of Multiculturalism and
the Evils of One-Worldism and
the Evils of Re-Writing History to Emphasize Non-Honkeys, and the
school board let him
read the whole thing during their
meeting (he kept it under
ten minutes, so
kudos). When he was finished, the
school board president asked him if he knew that the
school included
students who were
black,
Hispanic, and
Asian, and he said
yeah, he knew that, but there was no reason to
cater to
special interest groups. Then a
teacher asked him if he realized that the
World Literature course was an
honors-level
class open only to
seniors who had previously taken the classes in
American Literature and
English Literature. He turned
beet red, then
blurted, "Well, they should send those
Mexicans and
niggers back to
Africa where they belong!" And he
stormed out, never to
darken the halls of
education again.
I
remember him everytime I hear someone complain that
diversity,
multiculturalism, and
tolerance are
bad things.
