NBPoC, when Black people tell you to pass a piece on to a Black writer - do. There is no allyship, no basic level of integrity as a writer in creating a piece like this. You are feeding the cycle of harm, @BritishVogue this never should have been commissioned.

Robin DiAngelo might be the pinnacle of white saviorism. Exploiting the knowledge she’s gained from Black, Indigenous and POC to look like the “good white person”. Only to make MILLIONS off of holding white people accountable (what y’all are supposed to do for free).
