Commentary Fifty years ago this year, I attended a performance in London of a Zulu version of “Macbeth.” It impressed upon me that Shakespeare was, if not quite universal (I doubt that his plays would mean much to the uncontacted tribes of the Amazon jungle, for example), of very wide appeal across cultures. About a…

It Pays to Be an Activist
Commentary Do you recall the shrieking undergrad at Yale, the one yelling at professor Nicholas Christakis on the quad? As the professor spoke calmly to dozens of students surrounding him, at one point she commanded him to shut up, tossed a few f-words at him, and wondered how he ever got his faculty post in…

Commentary Over the past 50 years, we have reorganized American and Canadian societies to favor and benefit less successful racial and ethnic minorities, particularly African Americans and Canadians, Hispanics, and American Indians in the United States and First Nations in Canada.

Bringing Social Justice to Sports
Commentary Sports are an expression of our physical energy, skills, and competitive instinct. They’re an inherent part of human nature. Even when we’re spectators rather than players, watching sports is a celebration of physical excellence, or at least attempts at excellence.

That has been the especial talent of teachers and scholars and critics. A…

Rare Open Intelligence Hearing Focused on Diversity Discussions
It’s not every day that the heads of the CIA, NSA (National Security Agency), DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency), and ONI (Office of Naval Intelligence) all testify to Congress in an open setting. An Oct. 27 House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence hearing was one of those rare occasions. But instead of focusing on any of…
