Two professors in the history department at UW-Madison claim to be African
American, but they refuse to be identified.  In fact, the Wisconsin
Personnel Commission has ordered that their identification be protected.

Professor Brenda Gayle Plummer, of the the UW-Madison African American
Studies Department has a discrimination suit against UW-Madison.  She has
been ordered by the Wisconsin Personnel Commission not to disclose the
identities of the "closet African Americans".  I am not fish-ologist, but
something is fishy --. sniff, sniff.  I'm also not an gatro-internalist,
but this affirmative action thing has more twists and turns than an
intestinal tract.

I used to say that "Black is Beautiful".  With this discovery, I now must
say that "Black is Beautiful -- at times".
