#WhyteWomen Stop trying to claim Toni Morrison as "yours". She never was, she stated as much. That you bought her books does not give you to the right to "claim" ownership or see her as your entrance into black (feminist) culture. Just stop.

Are you surprised? Toni Morrison became the "iconic" of African American writing & thus a "white" teachable moment w/o white people getting that her purpose was to efface the "white gaze". It's why "the Bluest Eyes" is my favorite.

I mean she even says that she’s not writing for the white gaze.
