The Quest for Cosmic Justice<\/em>. Thomas Sowell.<\/strong><\/p>\n Chastising the Self-Anointed\u2026. June 27, 2000<\/p>\n Thomas Sowell may be one of the most despised black men in America\u2013despised by extremist liberals, black and white, because Sowell has devoted his abilities to exposing their destructive ideologies of social redemption as counter productive to the best interests of all Americans. Widely known for his provocative, nationally syndicated newspaper articles and other books, he focuses, inThe Quest for Cosmic Justice<\/em>, on the misguided thinking behind the modern impulse to reform the very nature of the human condition from individual responsibility, competition, and performance to the tragic consequences of affirmative action and politicized egalitarian equality.

The \u201cmorally self-anointed,\u201d as he calls excessively liberal reformers and radicals, \u201chave for centuries argued as if no honest disagreement were possible, as if those who opposed them were not merely in error but in sin\u2026. Given this exalted vision of their role by the anointed visionaries, those who disagree with them must be correspondingly degraded or demonized.\u201d Marx, Lenin, Hitler, and Mao all followed this procedure, as have utopians of similar or less horrible results\u2026. That comparable dynamics rule the day, especially in the humanities in many American universities, will not surprise those who have any real experience of those departments. Sowell evokes the American political system and tradition in the hope of preventing its further erosion….<\/p>\n Now available in<\/p>\n The Myth of the Enlightenment: Essays<\/em> https:\/\/www.earthrisepress.net\/myth_of_the_enlightenment.html<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Thomas Sowell may be one of the most despised black men in America-despised by extremist liberals, black and white, because Sowell has devoted his abilities to exposing their destructive ideologies of social redemption as counterproductive to the best interests of all Americans.
