In a private Facebook group, several members of an elite film editors page were offended when a filmmaker specifically requested a Black editor.

Stunned that Handy would not consider a white person for the job, the group’s sensitive members rebuked Handy’s decision, calling it “reverse racism.”

With Handy’s post getting perceived as racial discrimination, some of the members, who are presumed to be white themselves, call on the page’s admin to delete the post, Insider reported.

“Several members of the group, myself included, were deeply offended by some of the responses by white editors who perceived my effort to source more editors of color as some sort of ‘reverse discrimination.

French tweeted out several posts of white men complaining about Black editors given an opportunity.
