The story is obviously deeply ironic. It portrays and condemns both racism and white privilege without resorting to calling them out explicitly. I'm happy it's out there in the world and will finally be read, as it deserves to be read. Shame on CRAB CREEK REVIEW for lacking the courage to publish this, or presumably anything else with the potential to be even remotely controversial. They should have more respect for their readers.

It does those things certainly, but it does so much more. What a gift that it escaped being stiffled. The authors of the article have a good eye, and Crab Creek Review is worse off for firing them.
