Racism 101: Debunking White Supremacy Describing the US as a white supremacy isn't an ad hominem attack. It is simply a statement of fact.

Black Lives Matter Cracks the Blue Wall of Silence For decades, people of color have protested the horrific abuses that they have experienced at the hands of sadistic cops. Middle class America paid little heed to those protests because it was difficult for Ozzie and Harriet to imagine that police could really be as barbaric as people of color made them out to be.

Stephen Hawking's God: A Stubbornly Persistent Illusion It boggles the mind that two eminent physicists would be so unwilling to embrace the full implications of quantum uncertainty. With apologies to Einstein, quantum science has revealed the inescapable truth that determinism is naught but a stubbornly persistent illusion.

Paula Deen and Pop Culture Racism As the Paula Deen case illustrates, racist vernacular among pop stars can stray too far across the line of good taste and decency. I think it is incumbent on responsible adults to impress upon our kids that using racially denigrating language--no matter which pop culture hero the user may be emulating--is hurtful, damaging and wrong.
