i think you underestimate how much non african american people know and empathize with being discriminated against. i'm overweight and i'm very discriminated against. the things that people say and do to overweight people wouldn't be tolerated today if it were towards a person of any race. i'm not saying that racism and discrimination don't exist and that there should be some compensation, but i am saying don't think that african american people are the only ones who feel the effects of discrimination. not only do i feel it for being overweight, but also for dating an african american man.
please don't take my last post to mean that i was belittling the situation, but i honestly don't think that it was deliberate and people shouldn't just be looking at the sorority for it, but also the guy who dressed that way. isn't he at more fault for consiously deciding to represent himself that way. i do feel it was a mistake, a big mistake on the part of zta, but how much more do they need to do to pay for their mistake?
i do apologize if anyone is offended by my stance, but if you look at it logistically i think you will see my point.
