The fiercest vaccine advocates are starting to admit the truth about the mRNAs. I am as shocked as you are.
Alex Berenson
Mar 31
Even the new york times can’t hide reality about the mRNA jabs forever.
Last week, the times published an article headlined, “should you get another covid booster?”
The article’s subheadline noted “britain and canada have authorized another round of booster shots,” implying the united states has somehow been negligent in not doing so.
And the piece was written by Apoorva Mandavilli, among the worst covid reporters. So I assumed the article would be filled with the usual nonsense, especially since the first person Mandavilli quoted was dr. Celine Gounder, who has loudly pushed mRNA jabs.
— After Gounder’s husband died of an aortic aneurysm, she lashed out in January at mRNA skeptics (including me) who questioned if the shots might be linked to his death - even though doctors have repeatedly reported cases of post-jab aneurysms.
In her january piece, Gounder even complained congress’s repeal of the armed forces covid vaccine mandate “threatens military readiness.” (Nonsense, of course. Frontline soldiers and marines are young, fit, and healthy, putting them at far higher risk from mRNA-related myocarditis than covid itself.)
—
So I was stunned that Gounder offered the most tepid possible recommendation for further mRNA doses to Mandavilli.
Most people should not have boosters, even once a year, she said. She endorsed regular shots only for “immunocompromised people and people in nursing homes.”
The real tell there is “nursing homes.”
In mentioning them, Gounder was not suggesting that everyone over 65 - or even 85 - should get more shots. Nursing homes are effectively hospices for most residents. About one-third of their residents die each year, a 2018 study found; a 2010 study had even grimmer findings, reporting a median survival of five months after admission.
What Gounder was saying that only the very frail - who likely have little risk or benefit from the shots (or, in reality, any medical intervention) - should still receive them regularly.
In contrast, in October, Gounder offered very different advice, recommending boosters for everyone over age 50 “as soon as possible.”
(Celine Gounder sees the light.)
—
Gounder’s rejection of annual boosters is particularly stunning because she and other public health specialists happily promote annual flu jabs despite their demonstrated uselessness. The theory seems to be that flu shots get old folks out of the house, or boost walgreen’s profits, or something. Anyway they probably don’t do any harm even if they don’t do any good, so why not?
Yet Gounder is no longer applying the same logic to the mRNAs. I do not think that annual boosters for everyone makes sense.
Which implies either Covid is now even less dangerous than the flu (possible but unlikely), or the shots are even more useless (which would imply negative efficacy), or else… they’re actually more dangerous than inactivated virus flu jabs.
Which they are.
—
But Gounder was not the only vaccine advocate quoted in the times piece. Mandavilli also talked to dr. Paul Offit. No one will ever confuse Offit with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. - he is director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
In april 2021, Offit had this to say about the mRNA jabs:
Certainly, no one would have predicted that these mRNA vaccines would have worked as well or been as safe as they are… I don’t think you could have devised a vaccine that appears to be more perfect.
Less than two years later, Offit rejected more doses of those “perfect” vaccines.
For everyone. Even the immunocompromised.
But even more stunning than Offit’s rejection were the words he used:
“Given the lack of data, I don’t think it’s fair to say to people, ‘Inject yourself with a biological agent,’” said Dr. Paul Offit.
(Perfection no more…)
—
Vaccine advocates strenuously avoid this kind of language, for obvious reasons.
Inject yourself with a biological agent? Yeah, I’ll pass.
But the failure of the mRNAs is now so obvious that Offit and his fellow vaccine advocates have no choice but to try to ring-fence it if they want to save other jabs.

James Kunstler on Trump's [garbage] indictment [brief]
Just another day in what's become the largest-ever banana republic ...
"Reading all the 2016 warnings from the Normalcy Guardians and self-professed Democracy Protectors about how there's literally nothing more corrupt or dangerous than craving the prosecution of your political opponent — especially for trivial crimes — is really quite something." — Glenn Greenwald
the new york times enjoyed its long-delayed tantric Trumpgasm so much today that it rolled out the full-page banner headline format usually reserved for the commencement of world wars. (They took the banner down before seven o'clock this morning.) For many of the cat-ladies employed as "reporters" at the once-august paper, it was the first Trumpgasm they've ever experienced in a lifetime of emotional displacement, over-eating, and furious knitting of pink polyester hats for the crusade to root out patriarchal wickedness.
This fulfillment of a years-long psychodrama, starring the feared and loathed occult persona of a gold-coiffed "Daddy" figure who once presided in the political household, came at the hands of dragon-slayer manhattan da Alvin Bragg, archetype of the many long-oppressed victims worked to death in the bilges of our slave ship of state — now turned righteous woke deliverer of cosmic vengeance!
This oh-so-satisfying climax, of course, is brought to you by the party of hoaxes, flimflams, and mandated death shots, so it's amusing here on the sidelines to see the times's op-ed writers squirm with post-coital pleasure underneath the full-page Trumpgasmic headline. The lead editorial declares: "even Donald Trump should be held accountable"— overlooking the utter absence of accountability that has been the norm in every recent insult to the nation's dignity from wholesale and repeat election fraud, to six years of lawless depravity in the fbi, to overt support of antifa and blm street havoc, to the forced, deceitful administration of deadly "vaccines."
"how a President's arrest can strengthen a democracy," honorary cat-lady Nicholas Kristof opined, repeating the bad-faith trope that his legions of wokery have an interest in political rectitude — when, in fact, they are solely preoccupied with coercing, censoring, cancelling, persecuting, punishing, and defenestrating anyone who objects to their grifts and hustles. "only love and a leap of faith can break through distrust. that is why a credible form of patriotism is so important right now," explained the times's official superintendent of platitudes, David Brooks, to soothe consciences grated by this loutish gambit to shove a political adversary off the game board in advance of an election. "Joe Biden may not be your cup of tea," Mr. Brooks summed up his civics lesson, "but he's restored sanity, effectiveness and decency to the white house."
Oh, really? That will surely come as news to casual observers who are watching the "Joe Biden" wrecking crew in wonder and nausea as they dismantle every institution and undermine every norm in American life. A more credible form of patriotism would be, say, a general strike against this cabal of degenerates, serving to remind the cabalists that at least half of the public still cares about the Constitution, the rule of law, and actual decency (not a depraved simulacrum of it). Otherwise, why would "Joe Biden's" doj lock-up scores of Jan 6 protesters in the DC jail for years on misdemeanor charges without taking them to law? Why does the "Joe Biden" state department persist in destroying [the] Ukraine and pounding billions in taxpayer money into the place to accomplish it? Why has the "Joe Biden" regime adopted the drag queen as its mascot? What part of all that evinces "sanity, effectiveness and decency"?
It's a little early to assess the knock-on effects of the left's ecstatic Trumpgasm. A common theme flying across the Web is that Alvin Bragg's jerry-rigged case will only make a martyr of Mr. Trump, neatly illustrating and personifying the government's apparent war against its own citizens — making it clear that these wokester-jacobins will stop at nothing and no one to enforce the corrupt bureaucracy's will against the public — and that the net result will be to ensure Mr. Trump's reelection in 2024, if such a thing as a fair election is still conceivable after the skeezy lawfare work-over the rules suffered back in covid-time.
This comes at a time when that government — the "Joe Biden" regime — presides over the collapse of what's left of America's economy, the crack-up of the banking system, and the shocking loss of our country's influence in the geo-political arena. All of that is manifesting as increased general hardship across the u.s. population: a whole lot of citizens going broke, going hungry, losing their property and chattels to bankruptcy, losing their children to woke-induced psychopathology, and — the final insult — being subjected to a medical racketeering operation that ruins and murders them when they get sick.
The party of chaos looks pretty smugly secure for the moment. If Alvin Bragg's flimsy case in new york falls apart, as many expect, fellow partisans have grand juries lined up against Mr. Trump in other jurisdictions, waiting patiently to take their turns at the political assassination of this supposed "threat to our democracy." Former house speaker Nancy Pelosi declared yesterday that Mr. Trump "has the right to prove his innocence." She apparently forgot how our legal system is supposed to work, which is that defendants are presumed innocent and it's the government's burden to prove someone guilty.
As to qualifications to be president, the Constitution simply states: a presidential candidate must be a natural born citizen of the United States, a resident for 14 years, and 35 years of age or older. There is no language in Article II that might legally prevent someone convicted of a petty crime, fairly or otherwise, from running for the job. Which means that the golden golem of greatness could be back … cue the cat-ladies' righteous, wrathful meows.

leftist racism teachers' workshop canceled, Good Grief
"anti-White nyc teachers union's workshop 'harmful effects of Whiteness" cancelled not because of message, but due to Whites Complaining and making host feel uncomfortable over 'hate' she/he/it faced"
It wasn't the message causing the anti-white "Holding the Weight of Whiteness" seminar in new york city – put on by a teacher's union representing 190,000 educators – forcing its cancellation… nope, it's that White people complained about the course, forcing organizers to cancel it over hateful messages. ["nyc teachers union's workshop on 'harmful effects of Whiteness' canceled after influx of 'hate,'" new york post, March 27, 2023]:
"a controversial seminar about White privilege that had been planned by the city teachers' union for monday was abruptly canceled — because its host was inundated with 'hate [sic] messages and disparaging comments."the united federation of teachers — which represents more than 190,000 teachers, paraprofessional educators and child care workers in the five boroughs — had planned the virtual 'holding the weight of whiteness' seminar for 4 to 6 p.m. before it was postponed over blowback from politicians and online commenters."scheduled presenter Erica Sandoval, a queens [sic] licensed clinical social worker, said in a statement that the event addressing the 'harmful effects of whiteness in our lives' was canceled when she received 'hate [sic] messages and disparaging comments being left in my email inbox and on my social media platforms."'Because of this, uft expressed concern and we collectively decided to postpone the discussion,' Sandoval said."the union sent out an email to members sunday night informing them that the $25 virtual workshop would not go on as scheduled, a source told the post."the optional course for licensed mental health professionals was focused on 'cultural humility and inclusion' and sought to teach educators 'how Whiteness relates to privilege and identity, and how both become normalized and invisible,' according to literature promoting the event."'participants will leave the workshop with a better understanding of how to center ourselves as a form of resistance against the harmful effects of Whiteness in our lives, the organizations we work for or direct, and the communities in which we serve,' according to a promo on instagram."attendees would have earned two hours of credit for their continuing-education resume, which eventually results in higher pay."calls and emails to union officials about the nature of the cancellation were not immediately returned."more than half of the teachers in the nation's largest school system are White — and tasked with educating a mostly minority student body in which 72% of the students are economically disadvantaged [sic], according to the city doe."Sandoval, an ecuadorian native, told the post that the event was 'misinterpreted [sic] by certain members of the uft and the public at large.'"

With friends like that... "Sophia Negroponte is jailed for 35 years after stabbing 'best friend'"
By Prince George's County Ex-Pat and N.S.
fri, mar 31, 2023 3:46 p.m.
"Sophia Negroponte is jailed for 35 years after stabbing 'best friend'"
"The daughter of the former us national intelligence director has been sentenced to 35 years in prison after 'rage drove' her to stab her 'best friend' to death in a maryland airbnb.
"Sophia Negroponte, 29, was convicted of second-degree murder in january for killing Yousuf Rasmussen, 24, in february 2020.
"she stabbed him multiple times and delivered a fatal blow to his neck when he returned to get his cell phone following an argument between the pair.
"montgomery county circuit court judge Terrence J. McGann ordered her to serve 35 years behind bars on friday and said her pent up anger issues, made worse by alcohol, drove her to knifing her friend.
"She is the daughter of John Negroponte, who spent a long career in Washington as a diplomat before being named the united states first-ever director of national intelligence in 2005.
"Ahead of his sentencing McGann said: 'Rage drove Ms. Negroponte to stab her friend in the neck.'"
"Rage" didn't "drive" the killer to murder her "friend." "Rage" isn't some extenal force that drives anyone to do anything. Sophia Negroponte is, simply, a murderous, honduran thug. The dm buried that salient fact way down in the last paragraph (20th!) of the "thing," after a long headline, three subheds, and six repetitious photo captions: "Negroponte and his wife, Diana Negroponte, adopted five girls during their time in honduras - Sophia, George, John, Alexandra, and Marina." So, this was an immigration murder. No wonder the dm sought to bury one of the most important facts of the case.
More garbage:
"Sophia Negroponte and Rasmussen attended the same Washington high school and had been drinking at a maryland airbnb, along with another person, on the night Rasmussen was killed, montgomery county state's attorney John McCarthy said."
What's this passive voice crap? You expect that from the defense attorney, but not from the prosecutor. He's supposed to say, "On the night Negroponte murdered Rasmussen."
"'Neither the prosecutors nor perhaps the jury took into sufficient consideration the complexities and mitigating circumstances of the case - Sophia's past trauma and other factors that led to a very troubled existence. She's had severe alcohol use disorder.'"
"Complexities"? It's as simple as could be.
"Mitigating circumstances"? There were none; there were only aggravating circumstances.
"Sophia's past trauma"? The murderer has led a life of extreme privilege. I want me some of that "past trauma"!
"severe alcohol use disorder"? That's nine syllables worth of flim-flam, subsituting for one syllable: drunk.
So, was that a democrat defense lawyer speaking? No; it was her irresponsible, wimpy, republican "father"!
"following an argument between the pair." dm operative Kamal Sultan and Stephen M. Lepore make it sound like this was an objective fact, but it could only be a story concocted by the killer's defense attorney. A thug like Sophia "Negroponte" doesn't get in "arguments" with people, she batters and murders them. See "verbal dispute."
I'd love to know how many free crimes this monster had previously been issued. She didn't suddenly become a murderous thug at the age of 26. Nobody does.
I'd also like to know the backstory on her victim, "Yousuf Rasmussen." He doesn't look like any Rasmussen I've ever seen. And "Yousuf"? Was this an immigrant-adoptee-slaughters-an-immigrant-adoptee story? That's too interesting a story for the media to tell.

I really enjoyed college hockey when I was based in north-west Michigan. The state teams often gave "scholarships" to players from Alaska, Slovenia, Sweden, Finland, and the Russian Federation. All White players! Have you ever tried to stand and skate upright on hockey skates? I'm telling you, it isn't easy! I tried during the winters when I was a kid growing up north of Chicago. Now properly re-designated "Chicongo."

All White players! Have you ever tried to stand and skate upright on hockey skates? I'm telling you, it isn't easy! I tried during the winters when I was a kid growing up north of Chicago. Now properly re-designated "Chicongo."

One of my brothers is a medical doctor. He was educated at Hopkins, Yale and Harvard. As a Hopkins undergraduate student he did research one summer in Jamaica. It was in geology. This was many decades ago. It was when Manley was Prime Minister. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Manley
Manley cracked down hard on guns during his term in the '70s. I asked my brother what happened in Jamaica during Manley's term This was after my brother returned to the States. "There was an increase in machete and knife murders," he said. It never is about the weapon. It is always about the person who wields the weapon. More Horror Stories of White Educators Working in black-Dominated Schools
The War on White Educators (II)
The State of White America-2007: Education: Pseudo-Pedagogy, Real Hatred Release Date: April 5, 2007 Prepared by and for the National Policy Institute by Nicholas Stix, Project Director By Nicholas Stix I. Introduction V. “Education: Pseudo-Pedagogy, Real Hatred; Part I: The Autum of White America?” Part II: “Black School Violence: Where’s the National Guard When You Need It?” Part III: “The War on White Educators (I)” Fenger High School, cont’d.: Although the teacher did not sign his entries, and reversed the school’s name, he told two colleagues, who told their students, who began threatening him. The teacher-blogger e-mailed his principal that he “feared for his safety,” stopped coming to work, and was fired. The school’s black principal, William Johnson, denounced the unnamed teacher, saying “He’s lost his credibility. He lost the faith and trust of his students.” And yet, the school then held meetings on how to improve Fenger, and students made statements about the school that presupposed that the white teacher had indeed told the truth about the school. Note that in 2004, when black parents had demonstrated against the violence that they said was pervasive in Fenger, no school official said that by protesting, they had lost all credibility.[xvii] In a well-worn ritual in America, whenever a white tells the truth about black social pathologies, he is denounced as a “racist” who “lacks all credibility”; meanwhile, blacks grant whites who lie about such pathologies, either romanticizing them as misunderstood strengths or blaming them on white “racism,” instant credibility.[xviii] Chicago-based education journalist Alexander Russo called on the Chicago Public Schools to close Fenger, which he dubbed “One of Chicago’s worst schools.” “[Fenger] is one of the least successful, most troubled schools you can imagine, even by Chicago standards. Fewer than eight out of 100 students passed the state high school exam last year, one of the lowest rates in the city. The school struggles to find and keep certified teachers – a problem that will no doubt get even worse with all the negative press. Well over half of the neighborhood kids go to other high schools instead of Fenger – making Fenger one of the least popular high schools in town.” [xix] Russo also pointed out that the already violence-plagued Fenger had, under Principal Johnson, in just one year suffered a 20 percent rise in violent incidents. Jackson, MS. In January, 2006, white former Jackson, MS teacher Michael Herndon quit after almost two years of teaching at Whitten Middle School. He told of black students showering him with racial epithets his first week on the job.[xx] Herndon had worked for thirty years as an accountant, before deciding to embark on a new career. He had spent $60,000 on tuition for a teacher education program. “‘It began with the m-f, the cussing and, you just don’t need to be here you honkey. “He was also assaulted. “‘Knocked down on the concrete floors, children walk by and thump the back of your head, throw pennies at you. “He saw another teacher hit so hard she had a concussion. “‘That child, who was bigger than the teacher, just took this teacher and slung her down on the floor. She lay unconscious for twenty minutes.’” Herndon said “the girl who knocked the teacher unconscious … was back in school the next day.” The Jackson Public Schools’ “response” ignored Herndon’s charges. New York City. One white teacher found out too late that he was not safe from his black students, even in the confines of his own home. On May 30, 1997, teacher Jonathan Levin’s former student, 19-year-old Corey Arthur, left a message on Levin’s answering machine saying that he desperately needed to see him. Arthur visited Levin, accompanied by Montoun Hart. Arthur, who was armed with a gun, and Hart tied up Levin with duct tape, and turning up the teacher’s stereo, so that the neighbors would not hear his screams, proceeded to torture him by slashing and stabbing him with a kitchen knife, until Levin gave them the code to his bank card. When Hart returned from the bank with $800, Arthur killed Jonathan Levin by shooting him in the head. Corey Arthur was convicted and sentenced to 25-years-to-life in prison for robbing, torturing, and murdering Jonathan Levin. Although Montoun Hart made an 11-page confession to detectives, including information only the killer would know, and ATM witnesses identified him as having withdrawn $800 from Levin’s bank account, incredibly, he was acquitted in a separate trial.[xxi] Lake Worth, FL. On May 26, 2000, the last day of school at Lake Worth Middle School, Nathaniel Brazill, a black 13-year-old honor student, shot and killed his “favorite teacher,” Barry Grunow. Grunow, an immensely popular, dedicated, white seventh-grade English teacher, had reportedly had a good relationship with his killer … for all the good it did him.[xxii] Brazill was sentenced to 28 years in prison, including time served. (The minimum possible sentence was 25 years without parole, the maximum was life.)[xxiii] None of the major media addressed the racial aspects of the Levin or the Grunow murder. But all is not lost. White educators are increasingly fighting back with lawsuits, and some are winning. Oklahoma City, OK. In April 2000, the Oklahoma City School District paid a $277,000 settlement to 16 white teachers who had taught at Telstar Elementary School during the 1995-1996 school year.[xxiv] If the teachers’ charges are true, the school’s black principal, Dr. Doretha Colbert, ran a system resembling Jim Crow, but with whites treated like second-class citizens by black personnel and students. The 16 white teachers charged that Dr. Colbert had “harassed, intimidated, and treated them unfairly,” racially discriminating against them by “assign[ing] more work and plac[ing] extra restrictions on white teachers”; treating black teacher aides (i.e., the teachers’ subordinates), whom she permitted to insult the white teachers, as if they were the teachers’ superiors; giving white teachers’ lesson plans to black teachers, thus discriminatorily cutting down on the black teachers’ workloads; permitting black teachers to desert their classes without penalty, while at times forcing white teachers to look after multiple classes; and that Dr. Colbert supported children assaulting white teachers. The plaintiffs also suggested that Dr. Colbert was organizing violent felonies against the teachers in their homes. “Teacher Tracy Heatley quoted Colbert as saying on Jan. 22, 1996: ‘You will have to be beaten to a pulp before a student will be removed from your classroom.’” Fifth-grade teacher Vickie Newcomb charged that due to violent students, she “went to the hospital with numerous injuries.” “The teachers worried that classroom vandalism, hang-up phone calls, a robbery at a teacher’s home and a gunshot fired at another teacher’s home were related to complaints against Colbert.” Once when a student brought a gun to school, teacher Kristin Dougherty charged, Dr. Colbert told black teaching assistants but refused to tell white teaching assistants or teachers. Things got so bad that the teacher’s union had to hire its own armed guard to provide security in the school. “‘It was the worst work environment I’ve ever seen in 30 years of public education,’ said Ted Metscher, president of the Oklahoma City chapter of the American Federation of Teachers.” Following pressure from parents, Dr. Colbert resigned in November 1996. [Postscript, March 29, 2023: She then got a well-paying sinecure as a professor of teacher education at a black-run college. black supremacist networks take care of their own.] Mobile, AL. In the only case I could find of a white college instructor who was able to successfully fight racial discrimination, in June 2005, a federal jury in Mobile awarded $100,000 for back wages and $200,000 for emotional distress to Sarah E. Taylor, for having been fired by Bishop State Community College because she was white.[xxv] Richmond County, GA. In March 2006, a federal jury found that Dr. Ellen Cauthen, a white assistant principal, had been transferred illegally based on her race. The case cost the Richmond County School Board a total of $435,000, not counting the Board's legal fees. As part of her court victory Dr. Cauthen, who had been demoted to teacher status, was retired as an assistant principal.[xxvi] At the center of the case was embattled black Richmond County schools superintendent, Dr. Charles Larke. In spite of years of charges of incompetence, racial discrimination, sexual harassment and test and grade fraud,[xxvii] Dr. Larke, who proportionate to district size is possibly the highest paid superintendent in the state of Georgia, seems to be invulnerable.[xxviii] And yet, local black activists insist that he is a victim of racism, and have demonstrated on his behalf. Charleston, SC. Finally, the Charleston, SC schools have been hit with racial discrimination lawsuits by five white teachers in recent years, including four teachers from the same school, predominantly black Brentwood Middle School, during the past two years alone. According to the plaintiffs, black principals Dr. Wanda Marshall and her successor, Cassandra Jennings, at Brentwood Middle School have condoned and encouraged black children who routinely shout racial epithets at, threaten, assault and steal from white teachers, while not tolerating such behavior towards black teachers. White former Brentwood Middle School teacher John Smith charged that he was “rendered totally ineffective in managing and instructing his classes” because the black principal, Dr. Wanda Marshall, “would not allow students to be disciplined for racial slurs or other disruptive behavior towards white teachers.”[xxix] Smith sued the district, Principal Marshall, and Associate Superintendent Darrell Johnson when he was dismissed after one year on the job. The school district reportedly “admitted Marshall told Smith before he was hired that ‘in the eyes of the students, he could have two strikes against him, because he was a white male,’” while denying Smith’s claims of discrimination.[xxx] Smith eventually settled with the district for $50,000.[xxxi] White former Brentwood Middle School teacher, Elizabeth Kandrac, “alleges she was not given a new contract because she complained often that students frequently mistreated and cursed her because she is white.” Kandrac’s suit will go before a jury later this year.[xxxii] White former Brentwood teacher, Brandy Stokes, seeks back pay, compensation, and reinstatement. Stokes alleges that then-Principal Marshall “allowed students to harass her, causing the abuse to worsen and for her to fear for her safety,” and that Marshall told her to “accept the students’ behavior because it was part of the students’ culture and background. Ms. Marshall told me that the students did not have parental supervision and that this is the way they were.” On Nov. 13, 2002, after only three months on the job, one of Stokes’ eight-grade students punched her “in the mouth when she tried to break up a fight. She said the blow broke a tooth, dislocated her jaw and caused her to hit a chair, injuring her spine.” When Stokes sought to come back from medical leave for her injury, she says “Marshall told her she could not come back.”[xxxiii] In April 2004, then-Principal Marshall rejected charges that Brentwood had a discipline problem, saying “We deal with discipline everyday, but it’s the typical discipline that takes place with any student in any school U.S.A.”[xxxiv] And yet, incredibly in a school of only 800-odd students, Principal Marshall had in that very school year reportedly issued 1,315 suspensions and 38 expulsions.[xxxv] Apparently, Principal Marshall was as aggressive in punishing black students on behalf of black teachers as she was negligent in punishing black students for abusing white teachers. (The most recent figure for attendance at Brentwood Middle is 846 students in the sixth through eighth grades.[xxxvi] Attendance figures for the 2003-2004 school year were unavailable, but WCBD-TV reporter Octavia Mitchell cited only “454” seventh and eight-grade students in the school.) Elizabeth Kandrac’s lawyer, Larry Kobrovsky, discovered via subpoena that “Dr.” Marshall had not completed South Carolina State University’s requirements, and had thus been unlawfully awarded her degree, her job, and $2,000 per year in additional pay.[xxxvii] Rather than Principal Marshall being fired for racial discrimination, incompetence, or fraud (much less prosecuted), or being forced to pay back the money she had wrongfully been paid, after the 2003-2004 school year she was transferred to West Ashley High School as an assistant principal. In February 2006, teacher Gail Auld, filed a racial discrimination lawsuit, saying “Principal Cassandra Jennings knew students hit, threatened, stole from and racially cursed her and did little, if anything, in response.”[xxxviii] Auld, a 28-year teaching veteran with two master’s degrees who heads up Brentwood’s Social Studies Department, and who was previously a renowned teacher at other local schools, is the first Brentwood teacher to sue while still teaching at the school. She is presently out on medical leave. Auld reported that on her first day on the job at Brentwood Middle, a black female student “screamed at her, saying it was her job to get rid of all the (expletive) white teachers.”[xxxix] In another incident, a black student Auld did not know “hit her twice on the arm, causing her to drop her papers, and ran away.” Auld observed, “If that had been a black teacher (hit), they would have found the kid and had him arrested.” Auld sought to have the students disciplined, but says that Jennings and her underlings protected them. She said, “Kids got so empowered that first day that they can say anything and do anything.” Across the country for over forty years, tens of thousands of white teachers have endured in silence the same abuse, assaults, and destruction of their careers by minority students, parents, teachers, staffers and administrators. At least the Brentwood teachers, like some other white educators cited above, have found attorneys willing to take on their cases, local media outlets willing to report fairly on them, Web sites and bloggers that have spread word of their travails, and in some cases, modest compensation.

He is currently employed as an assistant principal in East Meadow's McVey Elementary School, as of fall, 2005. The East Meadow Schools newsletter introduced Comer as follows: "John Comer, Assistant Principal, McVey Elementary School "McVey Elementary School is pleased to announce the appointment of John Comer as their new Assistant Principal. Mr. Comer comes to the district from Far Rockaway, where he served as Assistant Principal for two years in the elementary and middle schools. Prior to his position as Assistant Principal, Mr. Comer taught middle school social studies in Ridgewood. Mr. Comer holds a Bachelor's degree in History from St. Francis College, a Master's degree in History from Queen's College, and an Administration Certificate from the College of St. Rose." As far as I could determine, John Comer had actually served for one year as an acting assistant principal, and for one year as a principal. The newsletter made no mention of Comer's having served as a principal. Melissa Gianninoto is no longer employed at MS 180.

In 1965, when Johnson administration official, social scientist, and future U.S. senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote his report, The Negro Family: The Case for National Action (since known as The Moynihan Report), warning that due to illegitimacy and related social pathologies, the negro American family was in danger of disintegrating, Moynihan was almost universally denounced by negro leaders. And yet, as Moynihan's warnings went unheeded, and as "Negro" leaders gave way to "black" and then "African-American" leaders, the 1960 black illegitimacy rate (21.7 percent), which Moynihan and other honest social scientists considered catastrophic, more than tripled. Meanwhile, as black sociologist William Julius Wilson reported in 1987, shortly after Moynihan wrote his report, some black leaders and academics would at times repeat as their own certain of his findings to black audiences, to thunderous applause. During the same period, as Kay Hymowitz recently wrote, most white and black academic social scientists entered into a phase in which illegitimacy, female-headed households, welfare dependence and related pathologies were romanticized as signs of strength and morality, not weakness and moral collapse.
