Racial insouciance

Racial insouciance as a public ideal came up in the 1960s among the intelligentsia and the Yankee bourgeoisie.
To this day it still has not (to borrow from a famous mistranslation of one of Stalin's speeches) penetrated the backward parts of the proletariat. Racial insouciance is not a core American value; it's a boomer fad, like James Bond movies. It will be interesting to see which fad outlasts the other. -- href="http://takimag.com/article/anniversary_of_a_defenestration_part_ii_john_derbyshire/print#axzz28xoySgmP">John Derbyshire, Anniversary of a Defenestration, Part II
