Maybe more than any other story, people love a good redemption story. Katy Perry is marketing a really good one right now.

-
There will be a knock-off attempt by Iggy Azalea called White Women's Saltwater, bottled for consumption.
-
People will stand in line to purchase these stories of redemption, which center the sads of white women while casting black women aside.
-
Non-black woc and men of all shades will once again remind black women that they must cater to the feelings of white women who appropriate.
-
Katy Perry's brand of redemption ultimately serves to harvest more power for white women. That's why it's so treacherous.
-
A real apology goes like this,
@katyperry: "I made mistakes. I'm sorry." You then pass the mic to the black women you've made invisible. -
But there's no money or power in that for Katy Perry. Instead, were left with Katy Perry as the radial point of forgiveness and womanhood.
