The Faculty Club at the University of Toronto Is Proud To Host A “Lunch and
Learn” Event
Featuring Author and Journalist Barbara Kay.
Monday, December 10th, 2012
at 12:00 p.m
Topic:
“Of Political Correctness and Pit Bulls"
From Barbara Kay:
"As Jews have always known, civilization is a fragile veneer covering dark
impulses in
the human psyche. The urge to perform or witness violence requires a
mechanism to
justify it. The Nazis treated Jews as vermin. Post-Holocaust, such blatant
racism is not
possible. Today the strategy of choice is inversion."
"When you combine Holocaust inversion with perpetrators of violence becoming
victims, victims being scapegoated as villains, and multiculturalism,
the trickledown
effect permeates every level of society. It offers an exculpatory mental
paradigm for
taking vicarious pleasure in violence with moral impunity. Pit bulls, bred
to kill, have
actually inspired a movement that promotes them as Holocaust-style victims.
From
one pit bull advocate: "First they came for the Rottweilers, but I was
not a Rottweiler
lover.”
Lunch is $20.00 for Club Members, $27.00 plus tax for Non-Members.
Space is limited.
