Shawkat addressed her own privilege in her statement, writing, "As an Arabic woman, who can pass for white, I’m working hard to process this nuanced access I’ve been afforded and I realize how important it is to be hyper-vigilant in the spaces I exist in.
"I aim to fight against these injustices that this isn't about a title but an action to work against these systems that have protected me but not others," she wrote. "I am sorry that my ignorance has led to this moment. I will continue to support the black community as best as I can and to learn from this.""I plan to stay engaged and learn from my friends who are helping me understand. And to take on this fight for justice with an active mind and open heart.
Sounds like she was quoting a song. If we want to do better no one should be using that word.
Just stop using the N word period. That goes for blacks calling blacks this. It’s just stupid.
Careless?
And she just remembered this?
“Out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks” carelessness only means your mouth expressed what your heart feels.
To any black person that still believes your non black friends & associates dont do this behind your back.. Dont get too comfy with these diverse protests
If she worked for BravoTV she’d be a scapegoat right now.
can we all just stop saying the N word, I’m sure my people wouldn’t have a problem with it if our people came up with something better to piss off whites, but honky is so fucking corny, whites don’t even care if blacks say it
1. Who is this? 2. A careless moment is something like locking your keys in your car or dropping the F bomb in front of your kids. Using the N word is not a careless moment and it shows that you use the word frequently
One after the other! Coming out the woodwork!
Who
Such ignorance...if she used it in an interview, she freely has used it before...now she apologies? Rest assured she has used it since. When did her moral consciousness kick in? Oh, I would say within the last week. 🤔
Just stop saying the word, now is not time to be losing your jobs
That doesn't sounds like an apology
