The CC Times has a long but largely uninteresting overview of race at Berkeley. (Uninteresting to experienced Cal students, that is.) It overviews the usual suspects: the Patriot, the Recruitment Centers, the rise of Asians, etc. There's the minority student from a white High School now embracing their ethnicity. There's the angry minority person who likes hanging out with his own culture. And there's the Asian student who doesn't get what all the fuss is about.
No quotes from white people, which isn't unusual. Excepting Patriot members, there's no 'white quote' on race on these things. Is that a good thing? It must mean that there's no accepted 'typical White view on race,' which is probably good. But the counterpoint is that it's still acceptable to quote minorities as 'typical minority member,' which is probably bad. Email This Post! |
