280. Thank you for proving my point
She says it right there in the quotes, "it brings up a theme for black folks that, okay, here's another white family that has saved the day, in terms of another black story that has to have a white person come and lift them up." She is assuming, based on either what she has heard, which is wrong, or based on her own beliefs that something is true without actually researching to see if it is true. She is holding a belief that she can only support based on prior examples.
