Melissa Barrera says the people who "accused me of being antisemitic" still "deny that what’s going on [in Gaza] is a genocide. So, we’re never going to see eye to eye on that... And they’re wrong. Just factually wrong."
"The specifics of my situation were like a perfect storm. I’m a woman of color in this industry. I’m 'on the rise,' but I don’t have a big enough name to be untouchable, so they can make an example out of me. I am well-known enough that you can write articles and create all the clickbait propaganda that you need, but also not big enough that people are going to care enough or revolt or do anything in the industry for me. I was the perfect scapegoat."
