Harvard Law dean puts ‘microaggressions’ in the same league as sexual assault
Article here. Excerpt:
'The common sense and resolve shown by several members of Harvard Law School’s faculty in responding to hot–button issues – notably fair treatment in campus sexual assault and harassment proceedings – hasn’t always been matched by their administrators.
Dean Martha Minow recently addressed graduating students at her alma mater, the University of Michigan, for the school’s winter commencement, The Harvard Crimson reported.
Telling students to be “upstanders” – those who intervene when they see injustice – Minow compared apartheid and forced segregation of public schools to … accidentally offending someone:
“Taking even seemingly small acts in one’s own school can build the culture that prevents violence, bullying, sexual assault, and racial microaggressions,” she said.
Seriously? Dean Minow cites three categories of intentionally threatening language and action andthen tags on a phenomenon that, by its very definition, is unknown to those who practice it.'

Feminism is hatefully bigoted, macroaggression
Hatefully bigoted feminist misandry on our college and university campuses (and in society at large) isn't microaggression, it's macroaggression (on a large scale). Duh!!!
