Yen* Professor Jim Chen apparently cares deeply about racial harmony in America and has strong ideas about how to achieve the utopia he imagines. It's a pity, then, that his article Unloving' contributes so little to honest discourse about that subject. The backdrop for this negative reaction to Unloving is the sorry state of race discourse (and political discourse more generally) in America today. Race is a difficult, complicated problem, and reasonable people of good will disagree passionately over the best ways to end racial injustice. Ideally, those who disagree ought to engage in honest, respectful, and open-minded dialogue in the hope of finding common ground. In this conversation, each participant would treat the others with respect and make a sincere effort to fairly consider all arguments being made. Unfortunately, the dialogue I envision rarely happens in America, at least not in public. Americans live on sound bites.

    A Man for All Reasons: David Brudnoy Was a Real Compassionate Conservative by HARVEY A

    A man for all reasons: David Brudnoy was a real compassionate conservative BY HARVEY A. SILVERGLATE DAVID BRUDNOY’S untimely death, on December 9, spurred a massive number of public reminiscences by friends, acquaintances, listeners, and just about everyone who ever crossed his path. The talk-show host, author, columnist, movie critic, teacher, and man about town was the perfect everything, each seemed to say. He did so many things well, in so many different spheres, and yet remained so human, with a special talent for humor and friendship. It was also often said that Brudnoy, "even though a conservative," was beloved and respected by the rich and poor, the well-educated and barely educated, the white-collar and blue-collar alike. MEETING OF MINDS: the author, right, with long-time friend David Brudnoy, It’s true that Brudnoy’s anomalous political philosophy who could connect as readily with liberals as with fellow conservatives. deviated considerably from both liberal and conservative dogma. His support of gay marriage and his opposition to obscenity laws separated him from many conservatives, while his criticisms of the "nanny state" conflicted with liberal doctrine. (He laughed appreciatively whenever I, a devoted liberal civil libertarian, reminded him of Barney Frank’s pungent observation that some conservatives believe that life begins at conception and ends at birth.) Indeed, a month before his death, he and I agreed to do a series of joint columns for the Boston Phoenix taking aim at the current-day idiocies that pollute both conservative and liberal political life. Yet the common view of Brudnoy is that liberals and conservatives managed to tolerate him despite his politics, by virtue of his magnetic and endearing personal qualities.
