Matching Quote
"Multiculturalism is a campaign to lower America's moral status by defining the American experience is terms of myriad repressions and their victims. By rewriting history, and by using name calling ("Racist! Sexist!
Homophobe
!") to inhibit debate, multiculturalists cultivate grievances, self pity and claims to entitlements arising from victimization."
-George F. Will
