Josh Barro is right. “African-American,” in the civil rights context operative here, is explicitly defined in federal guidelines as “black” (consistent w the common understanding that Elon Musk is not “African-American”). Incredible bad faith from Mamdani partisans.

His ethnic identity is not African-American, based on the definition of the term relevant to compliance with affirmative action guidelines.

I concede that Fujimori was a bad example, because Columbia’s question #1 is explicitly not about race but about culture or origin.
Elon Musk is the more comparable counter-example here.

It was quite good and I ENDORSE the use of garlic powder. Two mods: 1) forgot I didn’t have oregano so resorted to rosemary, sage, and thyme. 2) used kosher salt and garlic powder (not garlic salt) for better control (0.5 tsp salt per lb). I should have spooned liquid over it partway through.

Example: the GEO Group is one of the largest for-profit prison companies in America. Their stock price doubled after Trump got re-elected. They are massively profiting off of Trump’s crackdown on immigrants.
