Twitter discussions are noisy & not good for anyone's mental health. I would love to talk with you & explore yr starting points for thinking about a solution that is humane, modern and common sense. We could take it off Twitter to somewhere calmer letter.wiki/

I said what I had to say about Critical Race Theory fairly early on in the present public dust up, and in conversation with @AndreaLynnLewis - available here letter.wiki/conversation/322. Since then I have largely not involved myself, and tbh I don't regret it.

In 6 days Robin Diangelo will forfeit $22,712 to educate underprivileged children of colour by ignoring a debate request from a woman of colour. We've made several attempts to reach her for comment to no avail. If you have a way to get this to her please do 1/2 @Ayaan @megynkelly

This is a really beautiful exchange. I find myself in more agreement with ⁦@SarahTheHaider⁩, who is very very perceptive about the situation (especially in her first letter). letter.wiki/conversation/930

Thank you Iona!
Everyone, @LetterWiki has become of my favourite things to read. I was sceptical of the wisdom of the move from a mass letter-writing platform (a kind of epistolary social media) to a publisher-style model (a compendium of letter exchanges between well known people). I was wrong.

This would be amazing.
I am inviting Professor Robin DiAngelo to have a public debate with me on her book White Fragility, with a genuine desire for us each to share our perspectives on the important issue of racism. youtube.com/watch?v=62MEt85l…

This is why you are a civil rights champion @Ayaan and very probably why @RobinDiAngelo will likely ignore or decline the request, as genuine as it is, and as constructive such a conversation would be for improving race relations. But hope springs eternal so let’s hope I’m wrong.
