Everyone saying that I should position myself in the middle is wrong! Does an African activist have to stand in the middle just because of fear of being cropped out? It shouldn't be like this!
quote:
The photo in question was taken after the group – which along with Nakate included Greta Thunberg, Loukina Tille, Luisa Neubauer and Isabelle Axelsson – gave a press conference while attending the World Economic Forum in Davos. Nakate, 23, later shared an article by US news agency Associated Press (AP) in which she was the only person to be cropped out of the group shot. The four other activists in the photograph were white.
quote:
Nakate revealed she had received no explanation or apology following the hurtful omission, stating, ‘This is the first time in my life that I have understood the word racism.’

It was more likely because she looks like a face transplant patient

No reason at all to believe 4 white Europeans would be racist. Probably didn’t even want to be around her all day. But America bad.

You mean the overuse of the term "racism"? Yeah, it makes me want to vomit too.

Is climate activism the new emo/punk for teenage girls going through puberty?

Well good thing true racism is extremely rare in the USA. I can’t say the same about other countries but here it’s pretty much non existent.

Is it me or do the kids in that photo look lost and soulless?

Good to see that racism is dead.

The side by side in the OP makes her look huge.
Maybe they just couldn't fit her into the pic.

It actually gives me hope. My generation is leaving young people with a serious climate issue and crushing debt that they will have to deal with. We benefited from mismanagement and they will be handed the bill so I can understand their desire to take action. My generation successfully fought for ESA, EPA, to address serious environmental problems, their challenges are much greater.
