I have some reservations (need to research her more) as she was relatively progressive in an American context it seems.
If anyone has more starting points for my research, I am absolutely open.
However, for the moment she’s a “NO” from me. Even at the most forgiving judgements, it seems she sent away a whole bunch of poor people and did nothing about the system that is driving them to crime.
Ah also her weird racism, nepotism, and stances on LGBT issues. Who refers to art in their home by the ethnicity of the artist???
Racism really? You mean being positive about being black? I only ever see bigots referring to black folk as racist.
Any human being is capable of racism.
No, any human being is capable of bias. Racism requires institutional power.
Agreed any human is capable of bias. Bias based on perceived differences. Some people make biased assumptions based on their perceiving of race.
