Emma appears to have taken accountability for the line-crossing imply lady habits as Angelica tweeted on Wednesday that she had referred to as to personally apologize. She wrote:
“Thank you @RobertsEmma for calling and apologizing, recognizing your behavior was not that of an ally.”
Is it higher or worse that she apologized instantly, as a substitute of constructing it a public declaration? We land on the aspect of higher, within the sense that she wasn’t merely attempting to make herself look higher with a PR-approved transfer. This was a private telephone name admitting guilt, and it couldn’t have been straightforward to do. It’s a primary step. (Though we’re certain numerous people within the trans group would respect a public apology to them as nicely.)
Angelica did notice that extra steps ought to observe, persevering with:
“I will leave the line open to follow up on your desire to do better and support social justice causes with your platform.”
Way to maintain the warmth on, lady! We’re glad Emma apologized, however now it’s on her to do the work and be higher, proper? What do YOU assume??
