Dear all,
Keshia De Freece Lawrence, who wrote her complaining email to all participants of the Budapest AIW, was able to have access to the AIW Committee email archives during the last days. She could also read the discussion we had within the AIW Committee about her email. I don’t know whether other Committee members got emails too, but this is her fan email to me (see below).
Best, Renate

Betreff: Racist Piggy
You are a racist, eugenicist promoting colonial prick, you have no concept of sovereignty or Indigeneity. If you did you would understand this is 400 years since Dutch colonization and that I am of that Indigenous lineage and Fowler Montauk-Shinnecock. Your limited views on humanity are riddled through your small white-limited incestual colonizer mind. Shame on you, and all of the continued racist, defamation-based acts your sick and twisted European colonial counterparts, continue.
In Partnership,
