Score One for Multiculturalism...

https://heatst.com/culture-wars/detroit-school-to-hold-muslim-girls-only-prom/ +1 for social justice warriors and segregation -9,000 for logic and inclusiveness Edit: This article comes off the heels of similar articles published recently highlighting students who want separate activities where they feel "safe," such as a recent article listed on Drudge regarding African American students who wanted a separate graduation for black students in a supposed effort to promote brotherhood. Even if the reasoning sounds decent at a glance, it just doesn't sit well with me. Thoughts?

  • [quote]This article comes off the heels of similar articles published recently highlighting students who want separate activities where they feel "safe,"[/quote] Now I'm no nationalist, but this strikes me as hypocritical when it comes from those who favor forced integration, or what others call "multiculturalism." I know that not every nationalist necessarily rejects these examples of segregation, but here's what I see a great deal of the time. Nationalist: It's a mistake to stop enforcing our borders. We make our citizens unsafe, and evidence suggests that non-integrated communities have members that are less-trusting of one another. Progressive: You're arguing from a position of bigotry. Most of our violence comes from native-born citizens anyways. It's only a tiny minority of immigrants that commit atrocities. You have no reason to feel unsafe. Also Progressive: These students are entitled to their own events so that they can feel safe among people of their own kind.
