It has become virtually impossible to honestly discuss race, gender, and class issues in mainstream American society because if you dare repeat certain “taboo truths,” you’ll be ostracized as a bigot. Professor Wilfred Reilly (author of Hate Crime Hoax and The $50,000,000 Question) fearlessly presents ten of these truths here and investigates why the mainstream is so afraid to acknowledge that they’re true. Among these taboo truths are

• men and women are different, although equal; • there is no epidemic of police murdering black people; • crime rates vary among ethnic groups; and • there are almost no “pay gaps” between big groups, when variables other than race and sex are adjusted for.
