This shows a complete understanding of *ism. People sometimes complain about "reverse" racism or sexist, but the problem is that they don't understand that it's not just about discrimination: yes, perhaps it is sex-based discrimination, but that does not make it sexist. Sexism or racism is discrimination in favor of a dominant power structure - in other words, if white have all the power and discriminate against non-whites, it's racist. If whites have all the power and someone creates a black television station, it's not. Encouraging people of underrepresented groups to participate is never *ism.
Just thought perhaps that should be cleared up.
