American Renaissance 2024 - Amy Wax “Can America Handle ‘Race Realism’? Can It Survive Without It”

Prof. Amy Wax compares the process of becoming a race realist to climbing a ziggurat, with political and psychological obstacles at every step. Prof. Wax challenges the conviction that indulging “equalitarian” delusions is necessary for social peace, arguing that it inevitably devolves into blaming bias, racism, the West, and ultimately the nature of whites themselves for all racial discrepancies. She concludes, “We should all favor facing reality and be willing to sacrifice for the truth."
