    This stunning article by Lawrence Mead, an NYU professor, argues that Blacks and Hispanics, because they are not European, are “unprepared” for “individualist culture” in America. A few highlights: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12115-020-00496-1 …pic.twitter.com/B8AULzwVWB

        Lawrence Mead’s coup de grace: “Today, the seriously poor are mostly blacks and Hispanics, and the main reason is cultural difference. The great fact is that these groups did not come from Europe... Their native stance toward life is much more passive than the American norm”pic.twitter.com/IekfOX8Uyk

        Lawrence Mead is not some marginal academic. He was an intellectual architect of welfare reform in the 1990s. And he advised Rudy Giuliani when he was NYC mayor. (Thanks @powellnyt for reminding me of this context)pic.twitter.com/JNTw83RP3o

        I have so many questions. Does he even own a map? Where does he think Mexico is? Is he really arguing “slavery was actually good” in the year of our lord 2020? How do we get him fired? Just so many questions.

        More importantly where does he think Texas, New Mecico, Arizona, California etc. are (& were 150 or so years ago).
