She should have just kept playing and doing her thing. Nobody black or white should ever apologize for their success. They worked most of their lives. I don’t get it.

[niekorodriguez]

Whomever advised her to "acknowledge her white privilege" has sabotaged her popularity.

After the treatment she received from her team, other teams, and the league, its so pathetic that she bowed to the hate. They will Never let her off the hook, and now she has placed herself on that hook forever..

Her story inspired me to try and use my "white privilege" on the court and I still got smoked. Has anyone figured out how to use white privilege yet??

[MaccaBased]

I am done with Caitlin Clark and the #WNBA Not because she's woke, but because she bent her knee to the woke mob and apologized for being her! She has capitulated to the bullies and given them exactly what they wanted... weakness.

[MC-enrg]

🤦 She caved to the very people who disrespected her, relentlessly fouled her and accused her fans of being bigots.

Girl, you didnt block anything out! You let people bully you into making such a statement.

[Ghiaccio-xj]

The woke mob will never acknowledge her or her success….

A very sad day for a young talented accomplished young person. I’m having a hard time with this.

I'm her fan from the Philippines. She is my idol because of her incredible talent, amazing prowess, and remarkable resilience.
Now she claims it is because of white privilege? How did it become about race?

[dianejohnson]

I’m sick of people apologizing for being white

[loveyalotz]

As a black girl (who’s not American or African American) im so sick of this white vs black bs. Why can’t we love each other as human beings and let go of the nonsense on both sides?? Like slavery was bad yes and there are neo nazis but we should all go against people who support that.

Caitlin, you are a women on a basketball team. If you were any other color, you’d still be bringing in bank for the team. Wtf is white privilege? While I think each race has privilege, sports cannot be proof of any race privilege. Omg

[Shhhmk....]

imagine being as talented as you are and then doing that...

[mistytells]

I’m so sick of these peoples shit. It’s exhausting. I’m white. I don’t feel like I have privilege. I’ve been POOR my entire life. I never had anything handed to me.

[larky]

She says she earned EVERYTHING but follows up saying she has privilege. That's such a cop out. It's like when a person says that they accept full responsibility for some infraction but then make excuses for why they did it.

[stevengaffney]

How can you have white privilege in a black dominated sport, please.Somebody explain this to me

[partytimeproductions]

The moment I hear someone say "My Truth" my brain shuts off.

[ForeverMe]

All she had to do was stay neutral. SKIN COLOUR doesn’t matter. All that matters is someone’s talent. Being black doesn’t make you amazing at basketball and being white doesn’t make you horrible at basketball. This is BS.

[Badlckshleprock]

Why would she do this?!! Did her team tell her this is something she needed to say? She worked her butt off, nothing was ever handed to her. This is BS! 😢

[AJHyland]

What white privileged did she get in a league 70% black and 60% lesbian? The privilege of being targeted as a “cis white biological woman” by every black on the court who was jealous of her talent? She was blackmailed into this political position.
