As a NYer with personal and professional ties to that university, I found your post hilarious.

...[S]erious, well meaning people...

There's nothing more terrifying than "well-meaning" academics. Especially if they're industrious.

...studying this matter...

Studying it, within the insulation of the ivory tower. And what's their average age? 27, 28?

...and treating this subject with respect.

Those who don't respect the premise of reparations - let alone those who vehemently disagree - have little choice but to nod along. The left wing gestapo up there - about 50 blocks north of where I sit at this moment - is as unforgiving and potentially punishing of those deviating from the party line as right-wingers are in spheres outside of academia.
