To: No Surrender No Retreat

Johnson and Lynch are reportedly friends. Johnson made one comment, but it’s such a small part of the whole story. But, the reactions to that one comment - such as the reaction you had in your post - are illustrating her point.

Personally, I don’t think the issue is about race. It’s more about youth and appearance. But, she’s right on that one point: the media played up the story of the young, vulnerable-looking girl. Meanwhile, the other men and women were being held captive and/or killed, and no one was talking about them.

But, the reporter who wrote this article played up that one angle. Other stories about Johnson play up a different angle. There’s much more to her story, and she seems to be just telling the story as objectively as possible.
