Sask. newspaper editor draws backlash with column on racism
The managing editor of the Melfort Journal is facing outrage over an editorial he authored in the paper.
In “When will it end?”, Greg Wiseman addressed FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron’s statement suggesting racism is a “daily reality” for Indigenous people.
“People make comments and jokes about every group,” Wiseman wrote. “Yet only one group seems to always be the ones claiming racism.”
The editor continued, suggesting racism goes “both ways” and directly comparing statements made against Indigenous people and those directed towards white people.
