【五絕】文革來美？

黑白被顛倒

誰不受熬煎

造反成真理

真師得禁言

注1.  這首小詩是今天看到下邊的新聞之後寫下的感觸：

Gordon Klein, an accounting professor at UCLA, was suspended by the university after he declined an email request to make accommodations of final exams for black students in the wake of George Floyd's death.

In Klein‘s reply to the black student, he asked how he would identify which students were black, given the course was online, and how he should grade students of mixed parentage，such as half black-half Asian?

"One last thing strikes me," Klein added. "Remember that MLK famously said that people should not be evaluated based on the 'color of their skin.' Do you think that your request would run afoul of MLK's admonition?"

Apparently Klein's suspension was not enough. Now students are petitioning for the school to "Fire UCLA Professor Gordon Klein." 

注2. MLK are the initials of Martin Luther King Jr. (1929–1968),  

          中文通常譯為馬丁路德金。

注3. 得 ，  仄聲 (děi)，必須。

    禁， 仄聲 (jìn)，止也。《易·繫辭》禁民為非曰義。
