Ah the old "calling women of colour 'women of colour ' is divisive" gambit.pic.twitter.com/quSdRDOp9V
No cookies for White women who show up for magazine covers, conferences, & other events celebrating "women" but who never notice they're surrounded by White women. That's what participation in White supremacy looks like: whiteness is "invisible" to Whiteshttps://twitter.com/jes_chastain/status/944745093445111808 …

Yes. And Chastain’s response was also problematic. She totally tried to change the subject & divert personal accountability.

Very true It was also: "hey let's crowd source some answers because I don't know any WOC." Notice she didn't bother to name any actresses of colour. Gross.

Amen! You know the bar's too low when "oh you're right, this thing I did was horrible" garners mountainous applause. Ppl don't realize reactionary cries of "my bad! educate me!" just further perpetuate the cycle of not compensating/acknowledging URM labor. That's not progress.

I found the cover problematic for a couple of reasons: the 'in your face' lack of diversity, and that Kate Winslet is front and centre, after defending Woody Allen. I'd like to know if Winslet read Dylan Farrows oped, or if she's read the court transcripts; She's no ally to women
