Remember Defoe

Dear Editor:

l wonder ‘how many
readers found Doug Collins’
-article.in your issue of Dec,

/ 4 offensive. Its tone, openly
racist, and ‘its crude ad
hominem statements go: far
‘beyond the limits { of fair
comment, and they ‘certainly
advance little in the way of
logical argument, appealing
as they do mainly to pre-
judice.

At that, it might bé well to

“remind Mr: Collins, the

proponent of WASP su. °

premacy, what Daniel

f a
-Defoe, author of Robinson

Crusoe concluded when he
set out to find ‘'a true-born
Englishman”: namely, that
there was no such person.
His fellow-countrymen rep-
resented a mixture of most
European racial stocks with
a few more exotic bloodlines
thrown in, In fact, to Defoe,
“A true-born Englishman's
a contradiction.”’. Perhaps
your columnist should’ keep
this in mind before he at-
tacks multi-racialism.
