I'm not here for the participation trophies & partial credit some are so eager to give out. Emma Stone made a movie with Woody Allen, played a whitewashed character, and erased the importance of two men of color in a category. But she identified a woman, so.... yay? #Oscars

Say it with me friends, #SolidarityIsForWhiteWomen. tried to teach us. Intersectionality isn't a thing that many white women do well. Emma Stone (and those applauding her) are prime examples.

Lots of learning going on. Call it out, talk it out, build a better bridge walk across it together, pick up the next maligned and pull them up. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Because she called them "men" as if they both aren't men of color...

Hey, Steven, some ppl are politicized whether they want to be or not. Gay & trans ppl. Black & Latinx ppl. Disabled ppl. They're rights/lives are debated in the political sphere all the time, so "identity politics" are about marginalized ppl finally getting to *just be people*.

That's what happens when you only care about representation that looks like you. She saw Greta Gerwig but not Jordan or Gulliermo
