Power Line

Power Line: "Jules Crittenden posted a thoughtful Thanksgiving Day essay that coincidentally bears on the larger issues present in the doings at Dartmouth. Crittenden's essay concludes with this observation:

[V]ictimhood is a trap, every bit as vile and destructive as the trap of subjugating others that we now reject. They are traps that ensnare us in the terrible past. Whatever we might have come from, we are the survivors now, who hopefully have moved beyond that. And for that, today, we should be thankful.

Will somebody say 'Amen'?"
