What took so long for this?

If I recall, David Horowitz was fairly connected and radical. He recommended a friend to do the books for the Black Panthers. She found the books had serious irregularities and was found beaten to death and the perpetrators never found. I believe he took a decade out to rethink his life. His path to conservatism was a little more difficult than most, but he did ask an important question: Why did the movement he was in not support black churches instead of the violent black panthers? My belief is young oppression illusions are more attracted to violent outcomes. And it is not the morality nor the philosophy, just the physical nature of youth.

Way beyond crying. She cancelled her family birthday party because she didn’t want to be with any of us troglodytes. She had been so snarky about Hillary’s coming victory for month it was almost unbearable. I felt sorry for my nephew. I’m sure he dealt with hell for a few weeks.

Her own company’s offices were torched and she rationalized it so I’m guessing a few Black owned businesses were just collateral damage in the furtherance of the cause.

Isn’t “Hamilton” black?

“Few of our Conservatives today understand the Left as well as does David Horowitz. His knowledge of them is intimate, having been part of them.”

Yep. “Radical Son” is a must read for every conservative. Actually even more so for any intellectually honest liberal, though there aren’t many of those.

“Perhaps as with Dmitri Shostakovich who was given an opportunity to write a symphony to save his life...”

Will Lin-Manuel subtitle his “A Woke Artist’s Reply to Just Criticism”?
