    Yesterday I apologized to Clarissa Brooks privately, but today I want to apologize publicly. In an attempt to address my sincere concerns with her, I basically traded my hurt for hers, and that's not OK. I'll do better.

        Where’s her apology? Was the intent access to your platform and audience now that you’re working with organizers? Glad you apologized to her but her credibility has a dark cloud.

        Why are you apologising? People need to be mindful about what they say. You can’t go doing what she did and expect no come back. Actions have consequences, she’ll do good to remember that. Anyone come for me you better be ready for what’s coming back to you. No excuses.

        I did indeed. But the way I see it, I’d be concerned that in scenarios like this, people won’t learn from their mistakes. I am actually tired of seeing people having to apologise for things they really shouldn’t have to meanwhile the people who end up butt hurt because of their

        I agree, this isn’t going to be enough. It’s never enough to those who never wanted it to be. His apology was gracious, but shouldn’t have been necessary. Do not lie on someone, then not expect them to take their own personal integrity with the highest of priority and fervor.

        Thank you for the apology. I am a big supporter of you, and dont believe the accusations she made against you, but also did not like the way you handled this situation. You can do better, and Im glad that you are realizing it.
