Glenn Youngkin and Ivy League populism

VIRGINIA’S SCHOOLS don’t teach critical race theory, but Glenn Youngkin’s old school does. The hypothesis that America is structurally racist, which the victorious Republican candidate for governor falsely claimed was being fed to Virginia’s children, emerged at Harvard in the 1980s and has been taught there ever since. Toni Morrison, a novelist of black America whose book “Beloved” Mr Youngkin’s campaign attacked, also had ties to his alma mater. Yet it is a safe bet that the private-equity baron won’t discourage his four children from following him there.
