The ignorance in question is precisely about not knowing who Tim Wise is. Effie isn't saying you're ignorant (in general) and the proof is that you don't know who Tim Wise is. Effie simply said that you're touting your ignorance of who Tim Wise is. But your response clearly suggests that Effie is accusing you of being ignorant in general, and you know that isn't what Effie was saying. So do all of those who got involved in this "two part discussion" to back you up with comments about how what Effie said is uncalled for (of course, I notice that you're not telling those folks to 'mind yours').
The point all along has been that there are many people (Tim Wise being just one of the more prominent ones) horrified by what Biden said in response to a question about repairing the legacy of slavery (he chose to suggest Black parents don't know how to parent). But instead of people on DU being outraged by what Biden said, they're outraged that Reid would have on a guest who drew attention to the fact that what Biden said was outrageous. Shameful.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
