Last week, Saira Rao was running to represent Denver in Congress. This week, she says she’s given up on white people.
The Democrat, the daughter of Indian immigrants, on Thursday retweeted a New York Times column by Emory University professor George Yancy titled “Should I Give Up on White People?” that posted in April.
Rao wrote in her tweet above Yancy’s column, “Short and long answer: YES.”
I spoke with Rao about it Friday morning. After I pointed out that giving up on white people is a bold statement, the former candidate said, “I stand by it.”
Rao told me she had witnessed racism living in Virginia, New York City and Colorado, and they all take the same form, so it’s time for all white people to step up and end it. People of color have tried without success, she said.
“It’s incumbent on white people and not people of color to solve it,” she said in a brief interview, adding it’s the same as it’s incumbent on men to solve misogyny, because women can’t do it alone.

After challenging the Colorado political machine, white feminists, white liberals and the entire Democratic Party, a Colorado woman is causing an avalanche of white tears after she responded to a rhetorical question about giving up on white people by answering: “Yes.”
Last week, Rao lost a bid to oust longtime Congresswoman Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.) for Denver’s congressional seat. During the campaign, Rao called out white feminism, police brutality and white liberalism, causing white people to clutch their pearls and Colorado Public Radio to call Rao “DeGette’s most serious challenger in years.” Rao spent the race forcing Denver’s heavily white and liberal political community to address the realities of white supremacy.
