Seeing "URM" in text struck me as a casual injustice, as if people who were underrepresented in computing didn't even matter enough that it be spelled out. I'm delighted to read this complete indictment of the term.
@DOTS_UMD A set of neat activities to get people on bikes safely, all behind a condescending slogan hostile to the target audience. I would love to join a “safe commuting” event. Or even a “every cyclist on the road represents a free parking space on campus” event. But not this.
