Just a little poke at Churchill groupie and white Ethnic Studies professor Ben “How dare you call Ward white” Whitmer. Old Ben was spending his time making obscene and vaguely threatening post on a blog called Try-Works under the name “John Mooredock” when he accidently outed himself. Fearing legal reprisal (someone told me he once insinuated that he wanted to rape a woman in a comments section) Try-Works disappeared of the net.

Now it’s back, sans the racist comments he made toward me, of course. Our little dust-up came when he thought my taking offense, as a Black man, to Ward Churchill’s using the Black Power salute was so outrageous as to warrent sending me a “missive”, and so like people… like me.

Anyway Try-Works is back up but all his nonsense was cut out, and his post are as banal as ever, but without the racist/sexist/childish tone that gets bloggers hearts all aflutter. Maybe I can coax the real Whitmer out for a round or two of vile insults by sticking to my original claim that Ward Churchill, Ben Whitmer and everyone else at Try-Works is in fact white. This seemed to offend them before, which is odd because it wouldn’t offend me, but as I’ve mentioned before I don’t make a living pretending to hate white people.
