MSU, Yoga and White Supremacy
Are you a white person?
Do you practice yoga?
Well if you answered yes to the above questions, then according to a Michigan State University professor you are contributing to a “system of power, privilege, and oppression”.
You heard that correctly.
Shreena Gandhi, a religious studies professor at Michigan State University wrote an article in which she stated:
To the so many white people who practice yoga, please don’t stop, but please do take a moment to look outside of yourself and understand how the history of yoga practice in the United States is intimately linked to some of the larger forces of white supremacy.
WHAT!
I am not going to bother to explain how she ties yoga and white supremacy together, I do not smoke weed so I am having trouble following her.
