Working in issues of diversity at a large pre-dominantly white university and standing up in front of a group of peers, academics and top administrators in response to a ‘diversity report.’ I critiqued the lack of words like ‘racism’, ‘oppression’, etc., in the report. The Principal of the school responded that the report was written to not ‘offend or alienate anyone’.
Apparently, myself and thousands of other racialised and marginalised students do not count as ‘anyone.’ At a predominantly white university. Made me feel worthless, tired, disappointed, weak.
