Shows what you know. This honkey can throw bones with the brothers any day. When did dominoes become a “black” thing? My grandpa taught me to play.

This surfer is a quadruple minority (female, Hindu, Pacific Islander, veteran):

Exactly this. I'm open to trying new things but surfing isn't on that list. Nothing about waiting in shark infested waters for that big wave excites me. I mean frick when I first got to Louisiana and water tubed? on Bayou Vista I was afraid an alligator would get me.

a surf collective for women of color.
the barstool/women's hockey league drama was a great example of this.

There’s a major party that will ratify all of their nonsense and a complicit media
I don’t blame these small groups for overreaching.

oh yeah for sure. they get their way often enough so i can't blame them for trying.
i question if they're self-aware enough to realize what exactly they are doing though though.

I was in Morro Beach a couple weeks ago. There were surprisingly a bunch of middle aged women surfing. They were all white though.

Wouldn't a female surfer's penis and testicles get in the way?

Diversity only seems to be important when your "group" is not participating or has limited participation. You don't see a lot of diversity bitching about the NFL or NBA.

WINNER, WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER !!
Where the frick is the rule that says the race makeup of players in the NBA must mimic that of society in general? Where the frick is the affirmative action for white players?

Now do basketball.

America’s history of systemic racism plays a major role in discouraging people of color from taking up water sports
Umm, I don't think that's why blacks don't do water sports.
Also, there is no difference between "people of color" and "colored people".
