Johnny Cash at the White House, Whiteness Training
A Netflix documentary, "Tricky Dick and the Man in Black," explores Richard Nixon's attempt to use Johnny Cash to appeal to Southern voters. This historical context is contrasted with modern "whiteness" and "microaggression" training at Humboldt State University. An anonymous faculty member reports that the campus environment has become "surreal," with staff forced to remain silent about controversial diversity initiatives.
