Goldsmiths SU Diversity Officer Bahar Mustafa Could Lose Job Over '#KillAllWhiteMen' Tweet
The Goldsmiths diversity officer embroiled in a racism row could lose her job after allegedly tweeting with the hashtag "kill all white men".
Bahar Mustafa, the university union's welfare and diversity officer, caught the media's attention after telling white people and men not to come to an event about diversifying the curriculum.
She then defended her position on camera, saying ethnic minority women cannot be racist as they "do not stand to gain" from inequality.
Students have started a petition to have her removed from her job, while a public change.org petition calling for the same thing has racked up 1,500 votes.
"The current welfare and diversity officer has used hate speech based on race and gender," the union petition, which closes on May 26, reads.
"For example, the consistent use of hashtags such as #killallwhitemen and #misandry, and publicly calling someone 'white trash' under the official GSU Welfare and Diversity Officer Twitter account."
The twitter account has since been shut down.
