Question for my fellow DUer: Is this comment racist (I think it is):

[Coventina]

*** ******* said: “We're not rappers, you know. They say the f-word how many times per minute? We are not on that. That's them and we are [us].”

This is a very high-ranking official in an international sport.

I'll provide more context after poll closes.

1. It offensively plays into a stereotype. . .

. . .but I don't get the impression the speaker is being overtly racist.

It strikes me more as unconscious bias that should be brought to the person's attention as problematic by any aspiring anti-racist.

Perhaps I'm being wishy-washy, but I picked Questionable.

2. I know where this quote came from and it's definitely racist.

3. I was going to say "maybe" but then I looked the quote up

Yeah, it's racist.
