Civil Rights on Campus

What you term "anti-Israel" or anti-Americanism is part of a larger problem, the biased manner in which multiculturalism is presented in American colleges and secondary schools. Too many professors in the field of multiculuralism lack an historical foundation. I have been working on this topic for fifty years and increasingly encounter sloppy ignorance on the part of too many so-called "experts" in multiculturalism. There is no doubt an "anti-Israel" attitude pervails among many college educators. The hypocrisy of British educators who condemn Israel but never mention boycotting totalitarian regimes in Egypt or Sudan or Saudi Arabia, etc.. is a symptom of a growing ahistorical approach to contemporary issues. I have yet to hear a single British or American college group urging a boycott of Zimbabwe whose people have been tormented and bestialized by the mad man, Robert Mugabe.

The solution is for all who care
