Why is 'race' a part of this wonderful program? These girls should enjoy this sport absent of race.

I like what they're doing for young girls but why is it exclusive? That seems to be counterproductive. We wouldn't want an exclusively white skating program. You got to look at these things
-
Most figure skating clubs are white.
-
It was hard for us due to money. We had children of color in our clubs, but once you get past 4 years, it gets spendy. I spent 80k over 12 years.

That's a lot. Keep up the good work
-
We had small clubs. AK also has incredible diversity and we wanted anyone there, and we would donate dresses to our girls bc you couldn’t get those up here either. This is a sport that, as an individual, it can give incredible self worth and confidence that these kids need.

Sounds racist if it's only for POC. What about poor white children? Also, that 1st girl shown, poor child, sounds like she already been filled w/ racist dogma like they all put down on by everyone else.

Seems like segregation and discrimination to me.
-
Do you ever feel that when you see all white figure skating groups in a area were there is organic diversity but no one on the team is of color ?
-
If they got a news clip on ABC’s twitter that said it was exclusively for white people, then I’d have the same opinion.
-
Example of passive racism....
-
Very nice. Calling me a racist because I feel like an establishment that is exclusively for people of a specific race sounds like segregation and discrimination. Makes perfect sense.

Passive Racism Is The Trend Today...

Yep. Your intelligence level is far too low for me to continue this conversation. I’m getting dumber just typing this. I have no need to respond to anything else you say.
