“I don’t want pity.
I don’t deserve pity.
I just want a second chance to say I recognize I messed up.

She added, “I think a huge part of having privilege is not knowing you have privilege.
And so, when it was happening, it didn’t feel wrong.
It didn’t feel like, ‘Well, that’s wrong.
A lot of people don’t have that.’
I was in my own little bubble focusing on my comfortable world…
I understand why people are angry and why people say hurtful things.
I would too if I wasn’t in this boat.”
