...glamorized" unwed motherhood. Some blogs hosted a righteous orgy of "slutshaming," denouncing Gloucester's "marauding narcissistic sluts" for following the toxic example of movie stars and the Spears sisters, and longing for the return of the scarlet letter. But I wonder if the critics would be so quick to condemn if they flipped the story and viewed it another...

...from Daniel Patrick Moynihan's 1965 report, in which Moynihan argued that the black family was a "tangle of pathology" whose destruction by slavery had produced female-headed households, absent fathers and high illegitimacy. Interestingly, Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the few Negro leaders who refused to condemn the future New York Senator's report. "The shattering blows on the Negro family have made it fragile, deprived and often psychopathic," King said at the time. "Nothing is so much needed as a secure family life for a people to pull themselves out of poverty and backwardness." But King...

...Until the Faculty really adopts such an initiative, however, our optimism must be tempered. The reported inertia and apathy in new course development may yet condemn students to recast versions of the hollow Cores. As of yet, no new courses have been created under this Gen Ed category. Of existing courses approved to count for credit, only one, Mathematics 154: Probability Theory (which even Gen Ed Committee chair Jay R. Harris admits most students are never going to take), is not a hold-over from the Core...

...Sept. 11, "You cannot do terrorism on other people and expect it never to come back on you." Twenty years ago, the response of too many Moyers-era liberals would have been to try to understand Wright's anger-he surely does have a historical beef-rather than condemn it as distorted and dangerous. It was this sort of thinking that helped make the Republicans the dominant party of the past 40 years. The left believed it was all right for people like Wright to condemn white America but it was "blaming the victim" to criticize the antisocial behavior...
