Looking on from the outside, how is the BSU by definition not racist? How would it go over if the school had a ‘white student union’? We call that racist. Or how about a ‘white congressional caucus’? Does it not work both ways? We are humans of the human race. I left EMC yrs ago and went to work in NYC. I worked with people… oh, who happened to be black, hispanic, white, brown, Jewish, catholic, and I was a WASP. What a menagerie of people, of humans. We worked together well during that time of considerable racial tension. I have worked along side of many people over the yrs, good people, and BTW, some had skin darker than mine. I think Aretha Franklin summed up a lot of the need we have in the relations interaction between different peoples groups… R.E.S.P.E.C.T. BTW , this needs to flow both directions.
