Here is a excerpt from Gorge Will's column today on the Seattle School District's definition of racism.

Until June, the school district's Web site declared that ``cultural racism'' includes ``emphasizing individualism as opposed to a more collective ideology,'' ``having a future time orientation'' (planning ahead) and ``defining one form of English as standard.'' The site also asserted that only whites can be racists, and disparaged assimilation as the ``giving up'' of one's culture. After this propaganda provoked outrage, the district, saying it needed to ``provide more context to readers'' about ``institutional racism,'' put up a page saying that the district's intention is to avoid `` unsuccessful concepts such as a melting pot or colorblind mentality.''

According to the Seattle School District I am a racist. It is part of my culture as a Texan to favor the rights of the individual over the collective, and to believe that all Americans should be taught to speak standard English, and to plan for the future. I wonder how the Seattle School District feels about the culture of Texans? I suspect that they think my culture should be eradicated. On the other hand, I would bet that they are sympathetic to the Jihadists who are compelled by their religion to kill Jews and Christians.
