The notion of political correctness has ignited controversy across the land. And although the movement arises from the laudable desire to sweep away the debris of racism and sexism and hatred it replaces old prejudices with new one. It declares certain topics off-limits, certain expressions off-limits, even certain gestures off-limits. What began as a crusade for civility has soured into a cause of conflict and even censorship. ✨ Remarks at the University of Michigan Commencement Ceremony in Ann Arbor, www.presidency.ucsb.edu. May 4, 1991.
