This post by PowerLine&#8217;s Deacon reminded me of that possibility, although I make an effort to link to women and people of color when I think about it. But unfortunately or fortunately, depending on how you look at it, I don&#8217;t think about it much. I&#8217;m almost always focused on the interest of the post itself, its subject matter, viewpoint and style. But then when I discover it is by a woman or a minority I think good. It&#8217;s an ex post facto thing, except where foreign blogs are concerned, because I deliberately seek out and link foreign blogs for their unique access to information. Is that affirmative action? I guess, of a sort.]]>Wed, 16 Mar 2005 12:05:26 -0500<![CDATA[Roger L. Simon]]>https://pjmedia.com/roger-l-simon/2005/03/16/has-affirmative-action-become-reactionary-n207333
