WE CAN’T TALK ABOUT DIVERSITY AROUND PEOPLE WHO ARE DIFFERENT! Anger after white people and men are banned from ‘anti-racism’ rally at British university by its own student union DIVERSITY OFFICER.
A students’ union has been accused of racism and sexism after banning white people and men from an event to promote equality.
Those studying at Goldsmiths, University of London, were invited to the students’ union meeting to discuss ‘diversifying the curriculum’.
But they were shocked when an organiser told white people and men ‘not to come’ as it was only open to BME [black and minority ethnic] women.
The union eventually backed down after a backlash from students, one of whom described the exclusive policy as ‘patronising beyond belief’.
The event, held on Wednesday, was organised by welfare and diversity officer Bahar Mustafa, who said she hoped to persuade academics to broaden courses to include more material relating to minority groups.
Fire her.
