I don't think you can be faulted for that.

unfortunately lbs, she is an unknown and what got out there first was, the darker side of her, the unknown……I have read about her before I heard that blur and have since read more. White black matters not because, the material out there plus other statements that she has made points her as a ingrate. Now these were her words, the commentary is really of no consequence and I read whole statremenst not snippets that can be taken out of context, there by making it more difficult to get past her apparent, that’s apparent, well, what can I call it, the “pity poor exploited me" hood...
That’s not to say she doesn’t have valid and cogent pints, ala affirmative action and Princeton, she was in something of a skinner box, I get it, BUT its how she dealt with and articulated that experience, that frames my opinion of her. She extenuated the negative and had few words for the positive. Nor did it ever appear to hit her that someone stayed at home who could have gone, because she was, well, a minority. She bears any personal responsibility for that individual , but that would occur to someone who truly was enlightened , as she claims to be. It seems to me that some , some sign of gratitude would be called for.
