*shrug* I haven’t been following the kerfuffle. To me, it looks like she wanted to try to navigate the minefield of race issues in our country and move things one more tiny increment toward a better state of affairs, and she put a foot wrong. Boom. The first thing to do when someone steps on a mine is: don’t set off more mines. It looks like she knows she made a mistake and is attempting to learn from it; are there better outcomes than that from this kind of situation?

I’ll be surprised if there’s even a panel on this at BayCon.
