Very good comment regarding Helen Lewis and Chaédria LaBouvier. I have some sympathy for any public figure that would like to have control over what is written about them and are suspicious or hostile towards writers that they do not like or cannot control.

Very good comment regarding Helen Lewis and Chaédria LaBouvier. I have some sympathy for any public figure that would like to have control over what is written about them and are suspicious or hostile towards writers that they do not like or cannot control. But that is not possible in a free speech society. The interesting new spin is the anti-racist notion that only 'legitimate' black writers or speakers have the right to tell a story or voice an opinion about a racial issue. Ms LaBouvier certainly seems to believe that the Oxford educated, white, Englishwoman Helen Lewis does not have that right.
I think that Ms. Lewis was far too polite, borderline obsequious in fact, in her response to the insulting diatribe that the pompous priss LaBouvier sent her. The proper response to this twit would have been to simply ignore her and quit providing any further publicity that she doesn’t deserve in the first place.
