Hanna is uncomfortable with Isis, because the tranny thing makes her feel awkward. Well all the girls were in the hot tub, and as Isis was dancing in the middle, she started to get up on Hanna. This made Hanna uncomfortable, so Hanna pushed Isis away.
Later, Geena and Brittany were discussing it with Hanna. Hanna said "well, I am the typical white girl, I am quite and stay to myself etc..." (total paraphrase). This offended Brittany and Geena as they saw it racist...
hence the town hall meeting...
ANYWHO, I don't think Hanna was being a racist, i think she just TOTALLY said the wrong things. She feels different then Brittany and Geena, and she relied on stereotype in order to express who she is. Yes, VERY stupid on Hannah's part and rather ignorant, the comment was racist, but I dont think it was a reflection of Hannah being racists as much as she is ignorant... but Brittany and Geena totally inflammed the situation by making it seem like it was more then it was to Nikeysha and Joslyn, shouting on racism and discrimination. Hannah didn't discriminate at all, so that was a stretch.
