That's not what she said. She said they didn't think they were
trying to be racist. There's a difference. Specifically, she said, "I don't think they understood the broader implications of what they were doing."
I agree that it sounds like a good time. But seriously, a gentleman doesn't just avoid trying to upset people. A gentleman avoids doing anything that he can reasonably anticipate will offend others, because a gentlemen considers the feelings of others to be as important as his own.
Sometimes traditions need to change or adapt. Nothing new there. Figure out how to have a good time, honor the best of your traditions,
and avoid unnecessary offense, that's all.
