it saddens me that this issue of race and class in this country has gotten so bad that White/Caucasian people can't even express a love and honor of their race without being labled racist.
TO HAVE PRIDE IN YOUR RACE IS NOT HATING ALL OTHER RACES
Just except the fact that some of your ancestors *ucked up. Hell, we all gots peeps in our history that wasn't quite right, ya know. But it was your/our ANCESTORS that did it...forgive, just don't forget so we won't have any repeats. Also, change the way it is today.

okay rant over, whew
I said all of this to say, if your org is historically white, be historically white. It seems like you all are trying to downplay that fact because of the reason your org was historically white, mainly it's exclusionary policies. Most of these policies had to do with the time period in which they were formed and most were just plain racism, but whatever the reason saying it's historically white shouldn't be a point of shame.
DEAL WITH IT, BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER IT!
ok now I'm done
