As a teacher's assistant, I have had the unique privilege of glimpsing through a student's eyes whose perspectives I typically would never have an opportunity to see. It is the best part of my job. When I was a TA for Western Political Philosophy, I graded an assignment where students referencing Aristotle’s Ethics evaluated a personal vice they had and proposed a virtue they would adopt for balance [1]. There were a variety of vices and struggles, but several male students wrote about sports gambling and how it left them isolated and unable to move forward in their lives. These men are prime examples of the crisis known as the ‘Male Loneliness Epidemic,’ and I want to do whatever I can to help them. But according to mainstream media, I, a black woman who has benefited from affirmative action, am the culprit who cursed young men to suffer.
