Black commentator MYCHAL MASSIE offers an insightful critique of both Democrats and Republicans and makes these observations on MCRI on WorldNetDaily.com
“Republicans in Michigan are opposing the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative. Said initiative would allow for every Michigander to compete on a fair and level playing field according to their respective skills and abilities, regardless of […]
At this juncture of public debate and lack thereof, given the media’s censoring real discussion and having gone over almost completely into negative propaganda against MCRI, I think many Michigan citizens might find it helpful to consider the testimony of MSU Professor William Allen, who happens to be a black person, and his and Barbara […]
Racial Preferences Mean Big Government. By Thomas L. Krannawitter. The Claremont Institute.
Here’s a radical idea applicable to MCRI:
“all citizens possess equal natural rights and that constitutional government’s only legitimate purpose is equal protection of those rights.”

Race-Colored Classes. The University of Michigan badly needs MCRI. By Michael O’Brien. October 30, 2006.
A student at the University of Michigan has published a revealing article on the carnival atmosphere that prevails at U of M surrounding Proposal 2, MCRI. Alas, all too true. He mentions Mary Sue Coleman praising the Black Action Movement’s […]
Proposal 2 effects on state debated. Free Press. October 27, 2006. BY ALEJANDRO BODIPO-MEMBA
Instead of social engineering, here’s a novel idea:
David Littmann, a consultant and former chief economist with Comerica Bank who retired in 2005, says Michigan would be in a better position to compete against other states for new manufacturing operations if Proposal […]

John McWhorter has online a number of articles relating to racial preferences and affirmative action. They’re available from his website at the Manhattan Institute. He’s the author of two outstanding books that seriously probe racial matters in our country and how we can, to quote the subtitle of Winning the Race, move “Beyond the Crisis […]
Securing racial spoils. By Shikha Dalmia/Henry Payne. October 26, 2006.
The Washington Times has an excellent article today regarding BAMN and its surrogate One United Michigan “cynically playing to women’s fears.” Definitely worth reading. The sky has not fallen in California, Washington, Texas, nor Florida…. Michigan on November 7, the entire nation thereafter….

Frontpage magazine.com has an article on BAMN that might help Michigan voters understand what type of group has been trying to deprive them of the right to vote for more than three years on MCRI. See also the INCRIMINATING BAMN documentation of its links to the Revolutionary Workers League, a Trotsky organization based in Detroit.

Wayne State University Law School Dean Frank Wu: “Around 2050 or so, we will cease to have a single identifiable racial majority.”
All the more reason we must base our society on the common standard of the 14th Amendment, equal protection under the law, not racial preferences based on endless discriminations over pigmentation.

The Ann Arbor News *almost* achieved a breakthrough, instead of PC rhetoric…. I recommend its editor and all journalists read and reflect more deeply on the work or recent addresses of John McWhorter, Shelby Steele, William Allen, Thomas Sowell, Bill Cosby, Juan Williams, and Ward Connerly, among others….
Racial preference is discrimination. There is no honest […]
The Center for Equal Opportunity has recently released statistics on racial preference admissions at the University of Michigan. Anyone interested in MCRI might want to consider the results:

Last night I attended the debate at the University Presbyterian Church in Rochester Hills. An entirely white audience of predominately grey-haired liberals, it was a highly manipulated forum. Questons were only allowed written on cards, which were then screened, deliberately misread, and censored in order to give preference to BAMN’s surrogate One United Michigan.
BAMN and […]
I participated in a forum in Chelsea, Michigan, on October 12th, sponsored by One World One Family. A small town west of Ann Arbor, people attending were mostly white, liberal, and well intentioned. As Shelby Steele has written, we don’t want to be racist or have it thought that we might be. The stigmata of […]
I’ve been rereading a report by the Michigan Association of Scholars published in 1998. It quotes Professor Carl Cohn:
“Preference by race is given systematically at the U. of M. to applicants for admission . . . The evidence for this is overwhelming, the conclusion is indisputable.”
The report “Racial Preferences in Michigan Higher Education” discusses the […]
John McWhorter, Losing the Race: Self-Sabotage in Black America. 2000. MCRI
In his book Losing the Race, John McWhorter discusses the cause of the achievement of black students reaching a “plateau” in the late 1980s, beyond which it has yet to rise:
“In this light, the maintenance of affirmative action nothing less than hinders the completion of […]
Listen to Jennifer on “Rightalk Radio” with Curt Allen. MCRI Executive Director, Jennifer Gratz was recently interviewed on “Talking Politics and Law” with Curt Allen. Jennifer does a great job at explaining the issue and discussing some of the opposition that MCRI has faced.

Instead of white people feeling good, the “masta’ takin’ care o’ da darkies” through white guilt, social engineering, and rigging the numbers, America needs to move on to a higher level of interracial understanding that respects people by expecting something of all its citizens, equally.
In literary terms, racial preferences are tantamount to Ralph Ellison’s battle […]

Regarding the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative (MCRI), MSU Professor William Allen makes an observation in his August 2, 2006 Interview with Barbara Grutter that many people of all backgrounds might want to reflect on for the seriousness of the political and social situation with which BAMN and its […]
