I understand exactly what Breitbart was doing, however it does not excuse what she said, much as some would like us to move on.
I listened to what has been played, perhaps there is more that I have not heard. However, her part about having a revelation was jumbled, and she said it wasn’t about black and white, but it WAS about black and white. Is she trying to have it both ways?
So, please tell me what I might have missed in which she talks about becoming color blind, because I don’t recall that, so maybe it is in some part of the tape I didn’t see.
she ultimately thinks it should not be about black and white, although early on, in her narrow thinking, it was. but it should be about who needs help. in other words, she was moving out of her racism to being more color blind — that’s my interpretation and not her words. so she tells how she grew more tolerant -— but the NAACP members seemed to delight in her earlier incarnation that wanted to resist helping the white farmer. i don’t think she expects us to excuse her earlier thinking - but since she saw the light, it seems unfair to punish her in her reformed state. if this is all there is to the story, sounds like she deserves her job back.
