The argument hereof — http://chroniclevitae.com/news/703-after-ferguson-some-black-academics-wonder-does-pursuing-a-ph-d-matter — is that scholars, PhDs, and PhD students should, as a result of Ferguson, become more like activists: vehemently "fighting" the perils of racism, prejudice, and ignorance thereof.
But the work of a scholar ought to be objective. Their role in this world is very specific, but one of the most important: seeking knowledge through research. One is unlikely to accomplish that with an activist mindset.

Date: September 17th, 2014 5:26 AM Author: Canary station I think in the past scholars at least made some effort to appear objective. Since postmodernism and cultural Marxism took over, objectivity has been completely dispensed with in favor of doing whatever it takes to push the narrative forward.
