History of Feminism

Jessica Williams is quite aware that should she take the job and then fail, her failure won't be her own, it will be all black women's, and all women's. Another thing she is quite aware of, but which Ester Blooms seems unaware, is that the resistance and obstacles she'll face will be 100x what a white woman would face. But Bloom disregards that, and diagnoses Williams over the internet with 'impostor syndrome'. Because Bloom refuses to realize that a 25.year old black woman won't be given a grace period, won't be allowed to stumble, won't be allowed to feel her way forward and learn on the job - and because she is a young black woman she is not allowed to be aware of that, and say no to a job that would be incredibly hard even for a 40-something white comedienne with a long established career, such as Tina Fey, or Amy Pohler. Williams has a much better grasp of her reality than Bloom ever will, and telling her that she doesn't is Privilege 101 material.

TL;DR If Jessica Williams says she isn't ready for the job, we should listen, and hear what she says instead of speaking over her.
