Share this article

This sounds like targeting a specific racial demographic, doesn’t it? Way to go, Ohio State University:

The Department of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Ohio State University held a “conversation with white students” regarding racism yesterday, aptly titled “Racism 101.”

According to The Lantern, the event went pretty much as you’d expect.

“While the majority of white individuals do not consider themselves racist or condone racism, Shannon Winnubst, professor and chair of WGSS, said it remains a deeply rooted issue in the United States, as it has from the country’s very beginning.”
