Dawson was way out of her depth writing from a Black lesbian’s POV. Seeing a nonlesbian white woman write the phrase “lesbian bed death was real” without a hint of satire was exhausting enough (it’s a homophobic myth based on a homophobic study), but then to throw on the IMMEDIATE exoticization and racism with a slavery plot point before I’ve even had the chance to recover? I should’ve expected nothing less from a Brit, honestly. 

I’m not picking this one back up.
