White “progressive” and “liberal” women, there is something you need to seriously confront.

You are far more willing to idolize, and fund, white women like Brené Brown, Mel Robbins, Elizabeth Gilbert, and Robin DiAngelo than you are to materially support Black women whose lived experiences and scholarship their work often draws from, reshapes, and sanitizes for your comfort.

This isn’t accidental. It reveals where your trust, loyalty, and sense of safety actually lie.
