Author Coleman Hughes recently brought an argument in favor of colorblindness to a left-wing panel on “The View,” but they didn’t buy it.
“Your argument about colorblindness has been exploited by the right,” one of “The View” co-hosts told Mr. Hughes. “You are being used as a pawn of the right wing,” she added.
The host then accused Hughes of saying he was a conservative, which Hughes denied.
“I think it’s better to stick to the subject and I think it’s better for everyone than talking about me without any evidence that I was hired,” Hughes said.
“Who are the racists here?” asked Glenn Beck, surprised. “We looked at the content of people’s characters and thought that was true, and often thought that was how we judged the world.”
Hughes also mentioned the research Roland Fryer highlighted during his talk at the Free Press. Although this study was about police violence, it did not align with leftist assumptions about bias within the police force.
“I collected a lot of data,” said Fryer, who is also African American. “We have collected millions of observations about the routine use of non-lethal force. It was at this moment in 2016 that I realized I was losing my mind.”
Fryer said he felt there was “some bias toward routine low-level uses of force,” including “forcing against cars and things like that.”
“People seem to like the results,” he said. “But we found no racial bias in police shootings,” he continued, noting that he had eight full-time RAs and had to spend a year conducting the study. When he learned the results, he hired eight new researchers, but the results were the same.
“My colleagues told me, ‘Don’t publish this, it’s going to ruin your career,'” Fryer explained. “I said, ‘What are you talking about?’ I said, ‘What’s wrong with that?’
