RA apologises to Jess DeWahls, their comms manager admits it's 'performative'
We all woke up to the welcome news that The Royal Academy had finally apologised to Jess DeWahls.
But is the apology all it appears to be? It only appeared after a week of intense pressure, during which they were presumably hoping the storm would pass, and now their comms manager, Adam Koszary, appears to admit that it was insincere.
So I was right, @royalacademy made an entirely false apology to @JessDeWahls to cover their backs. This is their salty comms manager, and he's getting approval from TRAS. Unprofessional, and still a hateful misogynistic org @AxelRuger @OliverDowden @KemiBadenoch @SophieJarvis94
He has now deleted the tweet.
UPDATE: …and locked his account.
How arrogant that man is. Learn a bit of humility dude, you lost!
He must be pretty confident of not losing his job over sexist female erasure. Pity women can rarely say the same.
I just tried to post a particularly toxic response Jess received but I guess I'm doing something wrong. Anyhow... no doubt you'll be sent it by someone else. Another wave of abuse for Jess. Appalling -- 'two sides'
