Melissa Andersson is a good Jewish girl, the daughter of progressive lawyers, imbued with the zealous liberal ideology of political correctness, inclusiveness and an earnest need to assert the equality of all. Weeks into her first year at Harvard she accepts a date with DeShawn Washington, a black groundskeeper at school. The date turned out to be a shocking thrill ride which was, by turns mortifying and exhilarating. Melissa had discovered that his righteous anger at her White privilege entitled him to a certain amount of freedom she would never usually have granted, and his rough ways had shocked her. Now she finds herself desperately hungering for those rough ways again, eager to abate her liberal guilt by seeing the roles of oppression turned on her by the angry Black man!
