Dunno if it’s commendable if it results in death threats.
I am not Mik5. I took liberal courses where many of my classmates were Jewish. I am a “girl.” I grew up secular and want to speak up.
I can tell you that I was in a class and my teacher said something racist (even by CR standards) and the room was silent. Did any students of whom she was talking about speak up against her? Or say that she was wrong? Or question it?
Seconds later she switched topics. I was shocked that no one said anything so I did. I asked her how she could say that and I challenged her rebuttal.
In retrospect, maybe the students had to live with that daily, overtly and covertly, and being minorities they were affected by the oppression.
I was in a better position to call her out. Someone needed to do it.
The person who it affects the most may not be in that position.
Thank you
