Let Cao In
ByJoe Cao, a newly elected Vietnamese-American representative for a heavily African American district, looks like he is going to try to join the Congressional Black Caucus. Ta-Nehisi supports the move:
It's one thing to have a Caucus specifically interested in the welfare of African-Americans. It's another to have a private, race-based, social club. The whole "reverse discrimination" deal has about as much truck with me Newt Gingrich fear of "gay Nazis." But this fight is stupid on two counts. 1.) As Adam points, tactically, you have absolutely nothing gain. 2.) You're just wrong.
