3. Finally, was there anything in this paragraph that caused UT to fire Mrs. Dixon?

Matt, I am going to depart from my previous suggestion that we analyze Crystal Dixon’s controversial column “one paragraph at a time” because I am beginning to think that her firing was a direct result of what she said in paragraph two, which was, by far, her longest paragraph. So, here are the first four sentences of that paragraph:

“As a Black woman who happens to be an alumnus of the University of Toledo's Graduate School, an employee and business owner, I take great umbrage at the notion that those choosing the homosexual lifestyle are "civil rights victims." Here's why. I cannot wake up tomorrow and not be a Black woman. I am genetically and biologically a Black woman and very pleased to be so as my Creator intended.”

1. Have you ever known a black person to wake up and decide not to remain black?

2. Have you ever know a gay person to wake up and decide not to remain gay?

3. If your answer to #1 is “no” and your answer to #2 is “yes” then how can blacks and gays be lumped together for purposes of identity politics, which is otherwise known as “diversity?”

Finally, I would like to leave you with a serious question to ponder over the weekend: Imagine you were an employer and a black homosexual came walking into your office seeking employment. You would, no doubt, notice he was black before you noticed he was gay. Does this not lend some veracity to Mrs. Dixon’s argument?
