San Diego will drop use of word ‘minority’ in its documents. Calling someone a minority implies that he or she is inferior, says sponsor of the measure which passed the San Diego City Council unanimously yesterday. “Schoolteachers and others, often
unconsciously, expect less of those who are labeled members of minority
groups. Those classified as minorities may even expect less of themselves…” No more consciousness-raising; the only politically correct solution these days is consciousness-lowering.
