Bonita Tindle, a black Social Justice Warrior, fighting the power:

Call me a Marxist if you will, but it is perfectly clear that the Social Justice Warrior movement for “safe spaces” and suchlike is a naked grab for power and domination, using modes of discourse that work within those communities, and to which wibbly-wobbly campus administrators, teachers, and diversocrats are especially susceptible. Liberalism in this case is nothing but a pseudo-benign mask over will to power.

Rachel Huebner, a Harvard undergraduate, writes about the situation on her campus:

One week ago, we observed an unexpected spike in the yield spread of Connecticut bonds over AAA-rate munis:

There were two specific catalysts for the spike in yield:

A Georgia pre-kindergarten teacher resigned and got arrested by the police after knocking a 4-year-old boy from behind, crudely dispatching him out of her way. A surveillance video shows the award wining teacher with a 22-year teaching history finding her knee thrust into the back of a 4-year-old special needs boy from behind, who had blocked her path in the school’s hallway. Evening Standard reports: Amelia Stripling, 71, turned herself in to police in the US after CCTV of the incident emerged on Friday, according to the Associated Press.

Earlier this month Uganda passed a new law that targets parents who refuse to vaccinate their children. Parents face up to six months in prison after claims by the Health Minister and others that a growing religious “cult” is preventing parents from having their children immunized. The new law also requires children to have an immunisation card to allow them to go to school. RT reports: The new law was signed by President Yoweri Museveni on March 10, but it wasn’t announced until this week.
