One Iowa State University professor who was invited to speak on a student government “Diversity and Inclusion panel” on March 10, allegedly tweeted that she limits her interactions “with yt people as much as possible.”
Professor Rita Mookerjee works, who made the comments, is a professor of sociology at Iowa State University.
“Lately, I try to limit my interactions with yt people as much as possible. I can’t with the self-importance and performance esp during Black History Month,” Mookerjee tweeted.
The term “yt” is often used online in place of the word “white” in conversations involving race.
In one October 2020 tweet, acccording to the Young Americans for Freedom group at Iowa State University, the professor tweeted that “whyte men with dirty hair and wrinkled clothes will always be liked and higher ranked.”
Another tweet by Mookerjee stated that “Someone called me white the other day so #NewProfilePic because I think the f*ck not.”
