i'm sure every historical figure from days, years or centuries ago would have something in their bio that would bother someone.
do we take down the american flag? every statue of every president ever? how far to go?
will this be a new cromwellian puritan wave with all icons removed and smashed?
some like to take things to extremes, i can't stand that.

Student Federation Acting President Romeo Ahimakin told the Ottawa Sun that the class has been put on hold until a way can be figured out "to make it better, more accessible and more inclusive to certain groups of people that feel left out in yoga-like spaces.

Does Romeo write for the Onion or something?

Bob, Honestly I haven't. Due to the nature of this thread, and my inability to fathom its abject absurdity, I've made the decision to self-identify as a woman of color - suffering from a crippling case of Yogaphobia, no less - in order to gain deeper insight and self awareness into the pain and horror of micro-aggression.

I have to tell ya it's time consuming - Try as I may, I can't seem to accumulate the requisite amount of one thousand paper cuts as yet.



As for the Ottawa Sun, I can only tell you that a simple google search of:

Student+Federation+Acting+President+Romeo+Ahimakin

Will yield a litany of additional sources, many of whom have conducted their own interviews with 'ole Romeo, not just simply a regurgitation of the Sun piece.


Be well, have a great Thanksgiving.
