[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"It's OK to be white" is no more offensive than "black is beautiful."

It may be trolling, but that does not make it untrue. If you think it's "hate speech," something is seriously wrong with you. If you are in academia and you are thinking about making a big stink about this, don't be surprised when it backfires, and you discover how much of a bubble you have been living in. I'm sure the trolls did this specifically because they knew that the holier than thou SJW types would take the bait and embarrass themselves.[/quote]

You are now equating "OK to be white" as a campaign spreading positive message about inner beauty. I agree the name alone is not offensive.

But it's not about beauty is it. It's about retaining hegemony by a regression to a time with a less equal playing field. As a white woman I have a problem with that.

Nope. It says nothing about superiority or "hegemony." This is purely your own inference.

It's interesting how this is something of a rorschach test. I can't wait to see who makes a fuss about it so I can disassociate from them, personally and professionally.[/quote]
