Ready to be done with PC Culture?

Dear Friend, I hope I have not offended you by calling you "friend." After all, people these days are get offended by much less. I cover political correctness for National Review, which means I spend every single day researching and writing about just how bad things have gotten. The "Just Words" campaign at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee declaring the phrase "politically correct" to be politically incorrect. A survey at Rutgers University about sexual violence included "unwanted remarks about physical appearance" as examples of "sexual violence" or "sexual assault." Concerns about "cultural appropriation" becoming so overblown that we have people screaming that they feel "unsafe" because there was a bottle of tequila and a sombrero in the same room. Now, it's certainly not easy to write about this kind of stuff every day and not go mad, but I'm happy to do what I can to keep our culture from being overtaken by the kookoobananas brigade. If you want to help out too, consider donating to National Review and helping us raise $150,000 by May 11. Best, Kat Timpf

Breaking: Left-Wing Black History Children’s Book Distributed by Simon & Schuster Is Heavily Plagiarized
A left-wing writer and racial-justice activist who has claimed that American society was "instituted by racist ideas and maintained by racist policies" published a black history book for kids earlier this year that appears to be filled with content plagiarized from other sources, according to a review of the book by National Review . Confronted with the apparent plagiarism, the book’s publisher said it would be pulled from circulation pending an investigation. Rann Miller, a New Jersey-based activist and educator, published Resistance Stories from Black History for Kids in March. According to the book, it is designed to be a "place of entry" into the history of the African people so readers will be "empowered to fight" injustices in the world. Miller, a former teacher who has both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree from Rutgers University, also writes opinion pieces for the Philadelphia Inquirer , the Progressive Magazine, and education websites
