  • Let's Talk About Race
    Faith commented on the article | over 2 years ago

    Well this is such an old and unresolved argument. It's one that will continue to be spoken about with little done as well. The idea that one has to "cold call" a non-white participant speaks volumes about the separatism that exists in the first place. Every woman that fights for gender equality doesn't even label themselves "feminist". Also the class and race privilege that allows you to opt out of interactions is not going to be dismantled by unindoctrinated whites who refuse to examine their privilege no matter how "liberal" or "progressive" they may like to think they are. Also there are only so many blacks who attend NetRoots Nation anyway. One could have used Twitter to find adequate representation within 5 minutes and taken time to build a relationship. If you really want to open this space you're going to have to do more than make a statement. You'll actually have to ENGAGE some non-white women.
