Packet 3: Bonus 21

Jane Mayer’s book Dark Money traces the late-in-life fervent conservatism of John M. Olin to his disgust at an event at this alma mater of his. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this university where, in 1969, over 80 members of its Afro-American Society staged an armed takeover of a student union building in response to campus racism like a cross burning.
ANSWER: Cornell University
[10m] This then-professor at Cornell decried the takeover as a “tragedy” brought on by “hoodlums” in “The Day Cornell Died.” This Black conservative analyzed the rise of “ghetto” culture in Black Rednecks and White Liberals.
ANSWER: Thomas Sowell (“sohl”)
[10e] The takeover is bemoaned throughout a book by Cornell professor Allan Bloom on the “Closing” of this two-word concept, which inspired a 2018 book by Jonathan Haidt and Greg Lukianoff on this concept’s “Coddling.”
