When you plagiarise material in order to get ahead, you didn't get it fairly. If you get caught plagiarising, and people in charge look away, there is a reason and a very good one is DEI. They looked the other way because they felt that they needed more representation from a specific group and Gay was a member of that group, who came from an elitist background. Roland Fryer went on his own, didn't plagiarise from anyone, has reams and reams of data to back his work and has showed success in his educational methods. He didn't copy from anyone. However, it didn't corroborate the leftist assertions of systemic racism so his identity group doesn't apply.
Plagiarising is cheating. Cheating shouldn't be rewarded. There's no double standard here except for those who want race to be the main identifier of a human being.
By the way, Gay plagiarised material from ANOTHER black American, Carol Swain, who has a Ph.D. in political science from the University of North Carolina and a Master of Legal Studies from Yale Law School. This accomplished woman didn't plagiarise her work but she has the wrong political views so she doesn't get the recognition that she deserves.
