It depends - relatively homogenous people? yeah maybe, that seems fair.
Teachers dressing up in other cultures clothing etc to add a veneer of authenticity? Not so much.
I tend to think that whereas the first point isn’t great, it kind of depends on the reasons - being unwelcoming is obviously a problem, but nor can you force a diverse group of people to do things.
The second seems to me worse.

I think the article I linked to is dreadful. The sort of thing the Guardian specialises in, fodder to give the dim-witted something to fume about while they eat their organic muesli.
That's why I made the comparison with cycling. Just because the profile of the participants tends to be skewed toward the white middle class, it doesn't necessarily follow that we're all a bunch of racist bastards.
Was reading this article in the Gruniad (I know) this morning:

If you swapped the word 'Yoga' for 'Cycling', would it be more or less the same?
