Law Professors Face Backlash After Call for Americans to Act Responsibly
< >
Two law professors are facing charges of racism, sexism, and homophobia over an op-ed published in the Philadelphia Inquirer this month that calls for Americans to act responsibly.
“That culture laid out the script we all were supposed to follow: Get married before you have children and strive to stay married for their sake,” University of Pennsylvania Law School Professor Amy Wax and University of San Diego Law School Professor Larry Alexander wrote in a recent op-ed for the Philadelphia Inquirer which calls for a return to American “bourgeois culture” of the 20th century. “Get the education you need for gainful employment, work hard, and avoid idleness. Go the extra mile for your employer or client. Be a patriot, ready to serve the country. Be neighborly, civic-minded, and charitable. Avoid coarse language in public. Be respectful of authority. Eschew substance abuse and crime,” they added.
