John Lott knows!
Only one group commits fewer mass shootings than whites – and it’s not Asians.

Andrew Gutmann’s outstanding letter to Brearley parents is here.

It cannot be stated strongly enough that Brearley’s obsession with race must stop. It should be abundantly clear to any thinking parent that Brearley has completely lost its way. The administration and the Board of Trustees have displayed a cowardly and appalling lack of leadership by appeasing an anti-intellectual, illiberal mob, and then allowing the school to be captured by that same mob.

If you follow Ann on the ‘X’ platform you’ve likely heard of this episode and now it’s here in its entirety. They talk immigration, the fall of California, the sorry state of American higher education and, of course, Donald J. Trump and what 2024 portends.

  • Bloomberg: In 2021 94% of jobs with the S&P 100 went to people of color, only 6% to whites.
  • Smart liberal pollster, David Shor: “People yell at me on Twitter about this. So working-class white people have an enormous amount of political power and they’re trending towards the Republican Party. In 2016, we didn’t lose because our get-out-the-vote lists were not sorted well enough. And it wasn’t that we had the wrong kind of digital targeting. We lost because, big picture, we ran a campaign that increased the salience of immigration at a time when marginal voters in swing states in the Midwest disagreed with us on immigration. That’s why we lost.”
