one striking thing about sullivan is he’s been commenting on american politics for about as long as i’ve been alive but has a tenuous-at-best grasp on what racism in the United States actually looked likepic.twitter.com/qI2u349fzJ

There’s also a line in where he says something to the effect of “the first time in history a majority-white nation became majority nonwhite” and it’s one of those little but revealing lines that shows how he has completely naturalized “race” as a transhistorical identity.
"affirmative action, which introduced race into college admissions for the very first time, as it had never been a factor anywhere in that process before, i'm pretty sure"
it's a very conscious word choice so that they can fall back on "government bad, government did racism"
Hey, he’s read over 25 books about it. From what I understand, that makes him an expert.
The phrase about affirmative action being when race became part of admission to higher education is quite something, as well.
But also, to suggest that “equity” means equality of outcomes is an elite level of mischaracterizing the positions of others.
