kuro5hin.org : “15-year-old Lisa McClelland, a student at Freedom High School, has petitioned for a ‘Caucasian Club’ in hopes of ‘break[ing] down racial barriers while embracing European American heritage.’ In what seems to be an unprecedented move, Ms. McClelland has amassed 245 signatures in support for the movement, all while reassuring that she isn’t racist.

McClelland’s ethnic background includes American Indian, Hispanic, Dutch, German, Italian and Irish. She says she and her friends feel slighted by other clubs at Freedom High School in Oakley, such as the Black Student Union and the Asian Club . . . Lisa said she hopes her club, like the Black Student Union and Latinos Unidos on campus, is seen as a haven for those who don’t fit into such categories even though all clubs at Freedom are open to everyone.”

You go girl! It’s about time.
