There’s a panic anytime that lower-downs have newfound power over higher-ups.
took necessary steps, but many of those measures felt more remedial than progressive. But my hope was thatparadigm for adjudicating claims would emerge out of all this, developed with input from survivors for a change. And
I asked Anna Holmes, founder of the blog Jezebel, whether Me Too and Black Lives Matter were worth comparing. A veteran of the feminist internet, Holmes has a unique view of how corporate and feminist concerns have intersected over the past few years—to the detriment of the latter. She said that was one reason the movements didn’t feel alike to her.
As businesses have rushed to declare their public support of Black Lives Matter, I’ve worried that the movement might get similarly diluted by corporate gestures that manage both to reflect the power of the movement and to trivialize it. Black Lives Matter has so far prioritized structural change over specific cases with extraordinary rigor. Still, it risks becoming a victim of its own success.
I’d like, therefore, to give Cerberus his sop: Yes, “cancellations” do happen. People have indeed lost their jobs because people with no direct power over them have publicly criticized them on the internet in response to some action or pattern or behavior. Some high-profile editors have resigned. So have a few CEOs. Blake Neff lost his job writing for Tucker Carlson. Amy Cooper lost her job and faces charges for calling 911 on a birdwatcher.
