It is human nature that we never know the limit of a tool until
we exceed that limit. So it is with social tinkering. Both the
government bureaucracies, as enshrined policy, and folks
in the ivory tower, as holy writ of their victory over the low quality
of segregation, have stuck with a form of racial thinking that
is indeed dicriminatiory. But they are often blind to it.

Was this the basis of Ham's post? Was Ham pointing out
the "social tinkering" from the Ivory Tower in these gov't
legislations? This would be a bold intellectual pursuit that
might be something to bravery pursue. Not race and the violent
conflicts of race on race (undoubtably immoral), but a more
intellectual debatable pursuit of the legislation coming from the
top-down/ivory tower? Is this what was meant?
A solution is instead the sliding ZMM over, as Craig's quote
noted, where we begin with the experience, the quieting of the
mind, values, and then go out from there.
