Is this the time a white kid stood up in public and, in tears, apologized 
for the air he breathes?

Identity politics of the sort I've heard about (and watched) at Antioch 
aren't about reflection but about following a party line.

pressure and in-group/out-group dynamics have played too large a role 
on-campus?
