Anyone who misses playing RaceFail Bingo! can find a good tune-up match over at HTMLGiant, where Roxane Gay* dared ask why this year's Best American Short Stories is full of tales of wealthy white people. The link in the previous sentence is to the follow-up conversation about the previous conversation, which is of course extremely promising. And like our own li'l Fail, people are even playing those obscure academic squares on the side of the card. A "favorite" quote: On the other thread you reacted to my post with emotion and excused yourself from engaging me in discussion. As a scholar I think you know you need to approach this subject with an open mind and to listen to what others are saying without accusing them of being racist. You weren't calling anyone racist but it was implied by plenty of folks in the thread.
Oh that silly black woman! Doesn't she know that her job is to passively eat up whatever she is dished, plus she's also responsible for what other folks might be implying! Clearly, she's not much of a scholar...
*Sadly, the bingo square "Start your own magazine" is a non-starter, as she has.
