recognize this victory when all is said and
done, but we will not be silenced!
We don’t believe in numbers and statistics,
we only believe in the voice of the People.
First matter of business is to rename Ferry
Street as Faerie Street; how this has missed the
city council’s attention is beyond me.
Our city manager is obviously slacking
off — such laziness is deplorable.
Next, the shambling state of our city
needs to be addressed. There’s not enough
good vibes in town anymore and too many
hobos; now our city wants to further en-
courage fostering criminals!
Limousine liberals are doing more dam-
age to our town than illegal drug abuse,
illegal taxes, illegal immigrants and the
criminal homeless combined!
Please voice your opinion @realste-
fanstrek on Twitter; we already have more
than 10 times the followers as our corrupt
competition. Together, we can and will
“Make Eugene Great Again.”
Peace & Love 2017.

same thing as portraying a black person.
The intolerant demagogic hatred thrown
in the direction of Prof. Shurtz should be
recognized as intolerant demagogic hatred.
In modern theater, there is discussion over
productions using exclusively black casts
or individuals traditionally portrayed as
one ethnicity being filled by a black (or
whatever color) actor, what this means, and
how it engages audiences to think about
classical stories with modern dressing.
Forget this narrative about the “asso-
ciation” of the “worst” stereotypes; let us
be judged for ourselves and our actions, in
which the mere appearance of blackface
isn’t some kind of shortcut analogy for
the “worst” racism and the most depraved
individual. Professor Shurtz didn’t mock
anyone, but she failed to appreciate the sort
of vicious reaction her profession gives to
the appearance of a difference in thinking.
Diversity is so important that we all must
think the same way about it.
