I’m rather disappointed to even see this article. We’ve seen this country bend over backward in efforts to right the wrongs of past prejudice, so far in fact that we now have many cases of reverse discrimination. The constant focus on race, counting stereotypes, maintaining ratios, etc. is undermining the great progress of the 60’s.
My suspicion is not that the LNP is racist; they simply want to make money like any smart newspaper. And the fact that the mock trial team does not get the same coverage as basketball is someone’s ax to grind. (I felt much the same way about my favorite SDL activities that took a backseat to basketball & track)
