Whenever I find out I’m trending, I have to immediately check if I’m alive! Then, I try and see if there’s a constructive dialogue to have on Twitter. Often there isn’t, but today there really WAS. (Thread)

It actually wasn’t a dialogue – it was just me agreeing that the Hollywood system is rigged in favor of white people and that my career took off at a young age with relative ease, ease I wasn’t able to recognize because I also didn’t know what privilege was.

The past ten years have been a series of lessons. The lesson now? Sit down. Shut up, unless it’s to advocate for change for Black people. Listen. Make art in private for awhile- no one needs your book right now lady. Give reparations widely. Defund the police. Rinse & repeat.

Lena Dunham calls for reparations, defunding police after being called out on Twitter for her privilege
Lena Dunham issued a contrite statement about her privilege in which she called for reparations and to defund the police after being called out on social media.
The 34-year-old creator of “Girls” took to Twitter on Sunday to acknowledge what an easy time she’s had in showbusiness after “Star Wars” actor Ahmed Best suggested that Hollywood racism played a role in Dunham selling her show to HBO without a complete pitch or full character in mind.
“Whenever I find out I’m trending, I have to immediately check if I’m alive! Then, I try and see if there’s a constructive dialogue to have on Twitter. Often there isn’t, but today there really WAS,” Dunham began her thread on Twitter. “It actually wasn’t a dialogue – it was just me agreeing that the Hollywood system is rigged in favor of white people and that my career took off at a young age with relative ease, ease I wasn’t able to recognize because I also didn’t know what privilege was.”
She concluded by noting that she plans to “make art in private” for a while before calling on the country to “give reparations widely” and to “defund the police.” – Source
