SLAVERY AND TREASON BURIED IN THE SAME GRAVE

I always think of Tony Judt on this (though I'd hold the condescension and double down on the public university systems in the heartland)
Passage from THE MEMORY CHALET: "By far the best thing about America is its universities. Not Harvard, Yale, e tutti quanti: though marvelous, they are not distinctively American - their roots reach across the ocean to Oxford, Heidelberg and beyond. Nowhere else in the world, however, can boast such *public* universities. You drive for miles across a godforsaken midwestern scrubscape, pockmarked by billboards, Motel 6s, and a military parade of food chains, when - like some pedagogical mirage dreamed up by nineteenth-century English gentlemen -- there appears...a library! And not just any library: at Bloomington, the University of Indiana boasts a 7.8-million-volume collection in more than nine hundred languages, housed in a magnificent double-towered mausoleum of Indiana limestone."

Also Michael Fassbender is doing a Magneto hunts Nazis movie, I know I’ve mentioned this many times before but that’s because it’s a brilliant idea
