Americans who practice yoga contribute to white supremacy, Michigan State University professor claims
>fox news not fake news...
>Shreena Gandhi, a religious studies professor at Michigan State, claims in an article she recently co-authored that Americans who practice yoga are contributing to white supremacy and promote the “yoga industrial complex.”
>White Americans should learn yoga’s history, acknowledge the cultural appropriation they engage in and possibly reduce the cost of yoga classes for poor people, a group that often includes people of color and “recent immigrants, such as Indian women to whom this practice rightfully belongs,” Gandhi argued.
>She co-authored the piece titled “Yoga and the Roots of Cultural Appropriation,” with Lillie Wolff, a self-described “anti-racist white Jewish organizer, facilitator, and healer,” who has called for “decolonizing” yoga, the College Fix reported.
>The two argued “the explosion of yoga studios, yoga video, apps, yoga pants, and other yoga swag over the last two decades is evidence” of the “(mis)appropriation of yoga” that “is part of systemic racism” built on “the labor of black people and people of the global south.”
>“We would argue one of the goals of white supremacy is to buffer white people from the pain that comes from the process of exchanging cultural grounding for the unearned power and privilege of whiteness,” they wrote. “...this modern-day trend of cultural appropriation of yoga is a continuation of white supremacy and colonialism, maintaining the pattern of white people consuming the stuff of culture that is convenient and portable, while ignoring the well-being and liberation of Indian people.”

If it ain’t white, it ain’t right.

Going off of this, could we tie any form of physical mprovement to white supremacy?
It would make the race war a metric shitte tonne easier when the opposition is struggling to catch their breath with every step.

Mason Young
I saw a pic where they argue about this on the commie reddit boards >we should encourage fitness so we can smash the fash >that's problematic and ableist and studies show that getting too buff can make you right wing They literally talk about this. This is why they need strength in numbers. Notice how at every event every right wing guy is like 6" taller and like 50 pounds heavier then any of them. Beta manlet uprising confirmed.

Isn't yoga actually a 19th century Sweedish fitness system that was repackaged as an ancient Indian art for marketing purposes?

Yoga induces demon possesion. It teaches the false enlightment that comes from the light bearer and sends you to hell. I'm all for banning that crap
Brandon Mitchell
This is completely off the hook.
> cheaper yoga classes
WTF, buy a book or watch yoga lessons on youtube
>cultural appropriation
The only nation that should be allowed to drive cars should be the Germans, while for flying in an airplane you need to be an American. Indians also shouldn't poo in the loo - that's what streets are for.
