Twenty years ago, Charles
Murray’s The Bell Curve was a semi-controversial but methodologically orthodox exploration
of the links between intelligence, class and race. In addition to providing
hard data, Murray and his co-writer made public policy suggestions intended to
mitigate socioeconomic differences in IQ, birth rate, crime, fertility,
welfare, and poverty.
The book sold well enough, but failed to genuflect
to the progressive racial narrative, and Murray was roundly taken to task
for it.
Old news, right? Not so much. Last week,
Murray and a professor who had invited him to speak at Middlebury College were
attacked by rioting Leftists on campus.
