Caitlin Clark Doubles Down On White Privilege Apology, Panders To The Woke Mob

Posted • December 15, 2024: WNBA star Caitlin Clark may have made some comments about the "privilege" she has in being white after she was named Time's athlete of the year, but that doesn't mean the woke mob will forgive her. -- After being named TIME's "Athlete of the Year," Caitlin Clark apologizes for her white privilege and says that the WNBA is "built" on black players. “I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege." - "A lot of those players in the league that have been really good have been Black players. This league has kind of been built on them." - "The more we can appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that, and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made this league incredible, I think it’s very important. I have to continue to try to change that." https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/1866584396234367402

After Megyn Kelly went after her for the "self-flagellation" involved, Clark doubled down, as she not only repeated how she has "white privilege," but also spoke about "sharing my truth," which is even more of a buzzword. It was a phrase that Scott Jennings was just not having, as he tore the entire concept apart during Thursday's "CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip." -- Megyn Kelly @megynkelly: “Look at this. She’s on the knee all but apologizing for being white and getting attention. The self-flagellation. The “oh pls pay attention to the black players who are REALY the ones you want to celebrate.” Condescending. Fake. Transparent. Sad.” -- Caitlin Clark doubles down, says she will help elevate black WNBA players because it's "very important." Clark was asked about "race and gender and sexuality in sport" and specifically about comments made by Megyn Kelly.

"I grew up a fan of this league from a very young age… I know what this league was about. And like I said, it's only been around 25-plus years." - "So I know there's been so many amazing black women that have been in this league. And continuing to uplift them, I think is very important." (…)
