Charles Murray: An open letter to the students of Azusa Pacific University

I was scheduled to speak to you tomorrow. I was going to talk about my new book, “The Curmudgeon’s Guide to Getting Ahead,” and was looking forward to it. But it has been “postponed.” Why? An email from your president, Jon Wallace, to my employer, the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), said “Given the lateness of the semester and the full record of Dr. Murray’s scholarship, I realized we needed more time to prepare for a visit and postponed Wednesday’s conversation.” This, about an appearance that has been planned for months. I also understand from another faculty member that he and the provost were afraid of “hurting our faculty and students of color.”

You’re at college, right? Being at college is supposed to mean thinking for yourselves, right? Okay, then do it. . . .

     I greatly admire Dr. Murray, but White men have got to stop constantly referring to themselves as 'guys' or 'males' instead of White men. The former contains a built-in semi-comical self-deprecatory note, while the latter could just as easily be referring to male lab rats or someone placing a personal ad. It is as if White men today are afraid to call themselves what they are for fear that they will sound triumphant or supremacist--yet another indication of how very far we have fallen.
