I came across a complete deranged post written by a professor at University of Hawaii
http://blogs.ams.org/inclusionexclusion/2017/05/11/get-out-the-way/
Let me quote something from the blog post
"If you are a white cis man (meaning you identify as male and you were assigned male at birth) you almost certainly should resign from your position of power. That’s right, please quit. Too difficult? Well, as a first step, at least get off your hiring committee, your curriculum committee, and make sure you’re replaced by a woman of color or trans person. - See more at: http://blogs.ams.org/inclusionexclusion/2017/05/11/get-out-the-way/#sthash.0XcOjPL5.dpuf"
"What can universities do? Well, that’s easier. Stop hiring white cis men (except as needed to get/retain people who are not white cis men) until the problem goes away. If you think this is a bad or un-serious idea, your sexism/racism/transphobia is showing. - See more at: http://blogs.ams.org/inclusionexclusion/2017/05/11/get-out-the-way/#sthash.0XcOjPL5.dpuf"
If you do not want to completely blow off your lid, please do not read the comments because most of them are hugely supportive.
I am not white. But this all is just insane!
