'New York Sun' Casual Racism-ism of the Day, Eskimo Edition
For once, we're not calling out NY Sun columnist Alicia Colon for her casual (or come to think of it, not so casual) racism. Today's example comes instead from the pen of columnist John McWhorter for today's piece about dying languages:

But how do you say "I should try not to become a racist asshole"?
