If Marc Lamont Hill thinks these ethnic studies classes do not teach--in general--ethnic solidarity, victimhood, anti-Americanism, pro-leftism, etc., then I challenge you the reader, to go to your nearest college and sit-in on a Women's Studies, African American Studies, Chicano Studies, Environment Studies--any class that ends with the word "studies," and see if this separatist teaching method is mainstream or only taught among the "outliers" and "rogue" elements, as Professor Hill says: "I've never seen that to be the case."
