So if I am to understand the lefties.....the only way to be true to your race, as an african american, asian or hispanic, is to be obese, uneducated, slovenly, and criminally minded. Otherwise you’re perpetuating white supremacy, you see.

[Worldtraveler once upon a time]

Olivia B. Waxman, white woman, writes about Natalia Mehlman Petrzela, white woman, to talk about white supremacy as does Elizabeth Warren, white woman claiming to be 1/1024th Indian. A U Chicago Press Executive Editor, Karen Darling, is a white woman. Another U Chicago Press Executive Editor, Mary E. Laur, is a white woman. Karen Levine is another Executive Editor, and white. Marta Tonegutti is Editor at U Chicago Press, and white. And Kari Roane, Director, Journals Acquisitions and Publisher, is oddly white. Go, white gals! You all are not just the Supremes.... because you're too white.

TIME to give it a rest. White women infected with liberalism are become lunatics and liars -- for money usually, as this article peddles a University of Chicago published book.

I’ll need more evidence she’s a ‘historian.’

Again, not enough time or gumption (it’s been a heck of a “physical” week), but I’m sure this is tied into the “Muscular Christianity” movement of the late 1800s-on.

Of course, it was started by white Americans, so must be racist.

OTOH, since whites created so much stuff, shouldnt whites demand that none of that be appropriated? Including exercise?

[the OlLine Rebel]

I actually read the article!

THIS IS A TEASER HEADLINE.

There is really NOTHING MORE than shown in the excerpt about “white supremacy”. And that wasn’t very compelling.

So this is another example of Time (MSM) trying to make something about their Woke PC religion. Continue the narrative of evil white Americans.

It hardly touches on it.

Not surprising that Olivia Waxman decides to attack white people. She has a history of that. Take a look at the long list of columns that have appeared in Time Magazine, many of them calling the US “racist”.

Yes... it’s a blurb... that’s why I skipped the middle paragraphs to get to it...

[Antihero101607]

So, does this make Michelle Obama white supremacist-adjacent for the whole “Let’s Move” thing?

[Dead Corpse]

I have... I also agree with you.

Don’t they exercise in that documentary about Wakanda?
