I know Rin has decided to move on after receiving Mackenzie& #39;s unseasoned apology. But I still want to talk about POC being disrespected in the publishing/reading world for a bit. I& #39;m not an expert. Just pulling on the things I& #39;ve heard. Strap in folks.
Mackenzie was wrong to doodle and draw in other authors& #39; books. End of story. No, I will not discuss or debate. Do that with your IRL friends who have time to waste hanging out with you. I& #39;m a freelance writer and author doing my job. Not your friend. Agree or BOUNCE!
The absolute disrespect of some of you in Rin& #39;s tweets. Telling POC to & #39;chill& #39; instead of speaking out about being wrong is racist AF. I said it, come find me P-A-B-L-O. I live in Jamaica where any existing racism ain& #39;t nearly as bad as other places. Y& #39;all abroad deal with a lot.
I still remember Justine Ireland tweeting in real-time about some lady chalk line trying to get her fired. Even contacting this hard-working black woman& #39;s agent. Not realizing he was both an ally and not willing to hurt his clients over random lady mayo& #39;s hurt feelings. Like...
I also had my own experience as a reviewer over at @queendsheena. Someone thought because I gave a low review for one of their books on Amazon. They could come for me and make up a bunch of lies. Read that white dishrag for filth on my blog. Don& #39;t try that shit with me. EVER!
Then there was that eggshell dudebro author who decided to write a book about a trans character by dead naming right in the title. He had the audacity to after trans readers & writers who said this was wrong. How dare the people who you write about speak like they have opinions.
And for anyone wondering why I mentioned transsexuals in this thread. If you need to be told POC has transpeople there too. Please block me and disappear. Say nothing. Just go and never return.
