If I was offered a tenure-track job at Bates College I would just be normal about it.
Show Post'Cooler' here means 'more craven'
Show PostAnyway, it's very sad for this man's academic career to end in a heap of internalized anti-blackness and willful obfuscation designed to cater to the tastes of people who see him as he apparently sees himself: an under-qualified token best suited for making racists comfortable.
Show PostPerhaps he is not personally troubled by these numbers. The issue is, he never provides them in the first place. Readers have no empirical or historical context for making sense of the cherry-picked "scandals" of Black academics he deems tokens. No other groups are accused of violating meritocracy..
