    Minorities face an always present but invisible censorship that silences them everyday--by refusing to publish them, for example. This normative (invisible) censoring matches a normative (invisible) whiteness. But when a minority protests, the majority accuses THEM of censorship.

    maybe I'm being, I don't know, angry, is it too scary if I'm angry?, but: , what if canceling a book tour because you're worried the criticism of a book will turn violent is itself a clear indication you never really saw any of us as people

    No. I'm sorry. I'm going to keep saying it. To equate critique with threat and protests with violence is what's dangerous. This is just the publisher not wanting to deal with fallout and backlash. But don't say that people pushing back against a book is threatening to democracy.
