    I am sad it even had to come to this, but here is a post from my wife, Rai, who feels the urgent need not so much to defend me, but to defend herself and our family - because the lies against me no doubt implicate her as well. In her own words. READ: https://medium.com/@raitking/i-am-a-black-woman-too-do-you-believe-me-b7fc5ef7857d …pic.twitter.com/w1ON7cX8uG

        So instead of stepping back your public persona and continuing to do the work you claim to do, from behind the scenes...once again, everything centers around you. This has been pointed out to you many times and you still don’t seem to see it or care to see it.

        This makes zero sense. How exactlydoes he bring light issues to raise awareness by going onto the shadows? And why is he supposed to do his work the way you think it should be done? Please think before you tweet.

        100% agree! I don't want Shaun to ever feel he has to scale back his activism or journalism. I've learned SO much from him in the past two years.

        It’s quite ironic that you’re saying to not fight the ally, when that’s literally what Shaun King is doing. He shouldn’t of sent a hit out on a YOUNG black woman activist, and he wouldn’t be under such scrutiny.

        She didn’t. She asked some accountability questions and deleted the tweet before he emailed her. I know ppl who met/worked with Shaun and they’ve all told me something about him isn’t right. If he had an ounce of dignity, he’d work to reach a resolution with her privately.

        Love y'all. Like I said on IG, weird how there are constant reports of Cambridge Analytica chicanery -- fake BLM pages, bots trying to stoke racial tensions, etc. -- and yet "Woke Twitter" will buy Bob Mercer's 3 year war on you hook, line & sinker due to comfirmation bias smh

        He could've just as easily sent that email to Clarissa Brooks and not posted her name. He should know social media well enough to know that it was going to end up with her getting endless harassment. That's the part that upsets me.

        Clarissa’s got no one to blame but her own confirmation bias - and she just can’t help but quadruple down? I dislike how Shaun handled it, but this went into overdrive with her, and now she’s not only refusing responsibility, but being openly antagonistic? That’s weak as shit.

        Everybody that makes these claims is on some "throw a rock and hide your hand" shit. It's corny & quite frankly Shaun warned everyone a few months ago he was about to start dropping the hammer if they kept at it.

        It's sad & hilarious to see people doing bad mental gymnastics to argue that a victim of widespread libel needs to somehow hide & protect the people doing the libel from the consequences of their own actions. We have some morally stunted people in this world.

        what #shaunking or anyone else attemoting to help our people should realize, is we cry for help, then turn on the helper for helping, but those with the biggest mouths in opposition are doing absolutely nothing... Similar to a slave talking down to others for wanting to be free.

        Agreed! 👍🏾 It’s the same strategy time and time again. Get the “field negroes” to distrust the “house negroes” and vice versa. White supremacists successfully exploit this defect created from generational conditioning. We need more of us to study our history and break the cycle!

        Thus far that strategy has been proven to be undefeated.
