So now I'm tuned into a NCCAOM & ASA presentation on BLM issues for FBU. It's become an problem there with students rallying for BLM support. FBU is actually driven by people of color, just not the B color. One of my first tasks was to draft a statement about how FBU was addressing BLM issues.
It reminds me of how we used to get complaints that we didn't run anyone but Asians on KFTC's covers. We were the only newsstand magazine to even run azns, save for when Yao Ming trended perhaps. The first speaker is pretty good but a tad academic. She mentioned the issue with 'oriental' which has always confused me (the O in NCCAOM stands for oriental). She's a good presenter though - she drops some nice analogies.
