> White roots class meeting with small opposition at ASU
> Arizona Republic
>
> The trouble over the Arizona State University course started with its
> title: "Exploring Your White/Euro American Roots."  The course's goal
> is to examine the forces of racism: power, oppression and
> discrimination. But it's succeeded in kicking up a campus debate over
> whether the course promotes the very evils it seeks to abolish. "The
> class is clearly designed for White students. That is
> discriminatory," said Joel Olson, an ASU staff member.
