Race Relations

One of the guys I read pretty consistently is Victor Davis Hanson.  He is a professor at Stanford and a farmer out near Salinas working a farm that has been in his family for generations.  His perspective is usually pretty conservative so I don't agree with everything he writes, but he's a brilliant guy and the thing I like about him is that he is fearless in speaking what he believes is the truth.  He will call out anyone and particularly doesn't have time for the "elites".

He has written a good article this week titled "The Tragic and Complete Collapse of Racial Relations" over on PJ Media.  You can read it here. 

I've written a few things about this subject and have generally said many of the same things, albeit not as eloquently or as well documented (he probably has researchers!).  It's a subject that is on an upward trajectory in the news and rarely gets a fair shake from the media.  The media is myopic on the subject of race relations more than probably anything else.  They only tell one side.  Consistently. So when I see someone making a legitimate and logical case for some of the principles I believe in, well then you're going to see it here.  But it's sadly rare.
