White people who do a downward-facing dog are contributing to a “system of power, privilege, and oppression,” according to a Michigan State University professor.
Shreena Gandhi, a religious studies professor at Michigan State, claims in an article (http://www.kzoo.edu/praxis/yoga/) 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.

You can't win if you are white, merely being white is being white supremacist.

No, I've lost all patience with this nonsense anymore.

Precious little snowflake can piss off right back to Hindoostan if she's so oppressed here.

She is a useful idiot. Look to her co-author (http://www.kzoo.edu/praxis/yoga/) to move up the chain one step towards the communist social justice roots...

From what I've seen of sanitation there, they oughtta "culturally appropriate" some fucking scrub-brushes and Clorox.

“yoga industrial complex.”

That shit right there made my day. I am not concerned about the YIC. They can't hold much power due to all the lacotose and gluten intolerance that infects the upper power echelon.
