White Woman Asks White Supremacists: ‘What Is Wrong With You?’
Jonna Ramey, a sculptor based in Salt Lake City, may be white. But she sure doesn’t understand white supremacists.
Ramey, 67, recently told The Washington Post that she was horrified by last month’s fatal events in Charlottesville, Virginia, where neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klan members and white nationalists gathered for a “Unite the Right” rally.
“I was furious, and felt like as a white person, I had to speak out about white bigotry,” Ramey told the Post. “It was important, I thought, for a white person to say something.”

Well I wouldn't really know, but I suspect it's probably easier to do both (judge and fight), when you don't oscillate between actively embracing it for months and then suddenly just weeks later seemingly fighting against it...
