Who gets to decide what is racism, hate? Atlanta shootings renew debate over white violence, privilege

Anthea Butler of the School of Arts & Sciences commented on how some authorities have hesitated to name the Atlanta spa shootings as a racist attack. “Many of us can see through this racist mess that the police are trying to say isn’t racially motivated,” she wrote. “Let’s be clear. This is terrorism. It’s murder. It’s AAPI hatred and vilification. It is racist.”
