Hate this fucking country, bro.

Just tried to go to campus to go to the clinic. Saw a homeless black man outside the building on a walker. We chatted, I gave him $10, told him to have a good day.

I walk in the building and ask security for directions. Security points me to the clinic and says he has an issue in the pharmacy.

I know the homeless man just went in there so I follow the security guard and watch through the glass doors.

This MF immediately walks in and accuses the man of stealing.

Gearing up to teach my favorite class again this semester: "Race, Science, and Race Science," where we discuss the many, MANY complex ways eugenics is embedded in American society, from genetic ancestry testing to ideas about weight loss.

Reading list below. First we read "Fatal Invention" by Dorothy Roberts. I start here, not just because it's one of my favorite books but, because it offers a good history of eugenics and race to frame the rest of the class. It's long (over 400pgs) but students don't mind.
