For a very brief season, G-Pop taught a college class.
On opening day, he asked his students to take a quiz. Needless to say, the room was filled with quizzical expressions.
He presented them with 10 questions. He told them that in determining their answers they could take into consideration wealth, poverty, male, female, gay, straight, black, brown, Native American, statistics, history, Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, Hispanic and white.
This was the test:
Who is more likely…
- …to steal something from you?
- …to commit violent murder?
- …to molest a small child?
- …to open a casino in Nebraska?
- …to take their children to Disney World?
- …to graduate with honors in mathematics from MIT?
- …to be in the military?
- …to be a billionaire?
- …to be a genius?
- …to believe in God?
Even though there were a few mumbles and grumbles from the student body, all completed the test and turned it in to G-Pop.
The next day when they arrived, he passed the tests back to them unmarked.
Then he said, “All of you completed the test. All of you, in some way, shape or form, decided to take into consideration the factors I mentioned in determining your answers. I’m going to allow you to grade your own papers and give yourself a score. I will tell my answers and you can evaluate how well you did.
Let’s start with #1.
Who is more likely to steal something? The answer is a thief.
Commit a violent murder? A murderer.
How about molest a small child? A pedophile.
Who will be opening that casino in Nebraska? A venture capitalist.
And of course, the person who would take their children to Disney World is a good parent.
Who’s the math whiz? An excellent student.
Who would join the military? A patriot.
A billionaire? A budding successful entrepreneur.
How about a genius? I would say a hard worker.
Is there some type of individual who’s more likely to believe in God? Yes. A person of faith.”
G-Pop paused. All the students had their eyes glued to their papers, reviewing their answers. A point had been made.
For after all, social justice does not begin when we recognize blatant bigotry in the world.
It starts when we acknowledge the prejudice in our own hearts.
