By removing ethnicity you’ve further isolated me from finding folks that identify as a person of color in a very white space. Anytime I’ve been in a extremely white space folks are extremely racist. I understand the motive behind the decision, however, this feature is helpful for folks who want to build a community with others who identify as a person of color. Many of my experiences living in predominantly white spaces have been traumatic. I’ve been told to go back to my country, been called a wetback, a sand ******, etc. So removing the ethnicity option is counterproductive.
