maybe we wouldn't be having this problem if we'd just given more women their own damn studies like Woolf told us to a hundred years ago

Doesn't 1 out of 5 not being white more or less correspond to the ethnic make-up of the US, though?

ummmm not really

if we're going for statistical accuracy there should only be 3 white folk, and also you're basically implying that that one Indian man is also representative of millions of black, Native and (East) Asian Americans, which is so silly I can't even

Implying that a selection of 5 people must include representatives of every American ethnicity seems silly as well.
