Month: August 2018

You are a decent and fair-minded person.  You strive always to treat all
people fairly and with dignity.  In your heart of hearts, you know that you
are not a racist, nor a sexist.  But you also know that these are highly
charged times.  In spite of your pure heart and your very best efforts, you
still fear that someone might unfairly accuse you of making a racist or
sexist remark or slur.  You want to avoid even the slightest appearance of
engaging in racism or sexism.

And yet, it has become so complicated these days.  Accusations fly
everywhere, sometimes over words that to you seemed completely innocent.
What to do?  You need some guidance!

To help you, the Manhattan Contrarian has put together this weekend’s
Manhattan Contrarian Quiz.  Take the Quiz.  Study the answers.  You will
then know all there is to know about what is and is not racist and sexist
in today’s world.

The Quiz consists of ten questions, each of which is either an actual
quotation or a hypothetical fact situation.  For each question, you are to
answer whether the posited fact situation or quotation does or does not
demonstrate racism and/or sexism.  Answers, and explanations, below the
fold.  One point for each correct answer!

Question 1:  You say, “I believe the most qualified person should get the
job.”

Question 2:  Teacher “polices the language” of students in class, and
