In the category of “who knew” should be filed the insight by former U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama that millions of black people “run away from water” and “can’t swim” because of their desperation to maintain the straightened hair they feel (racist) whites expect of them. As Larry Elder notes in Jewish World Review, Obama helpfully used much of a recent podcast to “explain” to “white people” that blacks have naturally curly hair.

Palestinian Culture: Unique in its Own Destructive Way
Although the Palestinian Authority enjoys an array of cultural departments and programs, A.J. Caschetta in Jewish World Review finds that all of it – art, education, literature, poetry, music, education and film – is oriented to two goals: the vilification of Jews and the destruction of Israel. Caschetta notes this is in sharp contrast to Arab and Muslim traditions, which include myriad aesthetically normal cultural works. Palestinianism, Caschetta finds, is “a very sick culture”, driven by resentment and fuelled by hate.
