Going Alinsky on affirmative action

Saul Alinsky taught generations of leftists to make their opponents live up to their own ideals.

RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)

A young man is doing exactly that, denouncing the blatant racial discrimination of affirmative action, and urging Asian-Americans and others revolted by the practice to vote for Donald Trump.  I think he is very effective.

His name is Vijay Chokal-Ingam, and he rocketed to fame when he got into medical school after applying as an African-American and publicized the experience.

I shaved my head, trimmed my long Indian eyelashes, joined the University of Chicago’s Organization of Black Students (a black friend ran it, knew my scam and got me in) and began applying to medical schools as a black man. I transposed my middle name with my first name and became Jojo, the African-American applicant.

He got in and attended St. Louis University, but:

Once in med school, I relaxed a bit because it was easy to blend in. With 150 students, nobody ever asked me any questions about my race, probably because medical school was just too hectic.

After two years and a lot of soul searching I realized I just wasn’t cut out to be a doctor. I dropped out of medical school for many reasons, but not being black was not one of them.

Instead, he wrote a book and became a crusader for racial justice.
