That doesn't mean Moana is not awesome!!! It just means that there are really important ways in which the stereotypes we raise girls with are different based on race and you can't take that out of the equation. It doesn't minimize any of those individual characters or stories.

How about you address it now? How about you acknowledge that you attempted to erase the plus size women of color who actually were the first to do it? How about you acknowledge that you thought you’d be able to say w/o repercussion and am now scrambling to make it make sense?

Girl, I love you, but where's the apology?

I feel like twitter is a perfect forum, actually! u can speak directly to the women saying “hey I felt really hurt by this thing you said.” Wise to take time & gather your thoughts before a fuller response but hope you at least un-blocked the Black women who got blocked for this?

And no one is expecting you to issue like a formal statement without getting the facts together, but an apology and commitment to listening to women of color and un-blocking the folks who were trying to help you understand this earlier is a great start.

Saying you don't want to disrespect anyone, then silencing WOC is the epitome of disrespect. And white fragility. Perhaps
@MattMcGorry can explain that one to you.Thanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Funny how you listen to White women but block women of color with your non apologizing ass
-
Yeah
@RebelWilson this is a really bad look. It’s very upsetting to see that you’re still blocking Black women who put a TON of emotional labor into trying to explain this to you first.

All that but still haven’t given an apology or an “I was wrong”. You not only were wrong but doubled down on it. I’m sorry isn’t that difficult to say and yet
-
And you blocked people who weren’t even rude but explained why you were wrong. So this whole “supporting plus size women” kumbaya thing is ringing hollow
