See even she knows what she is!
After Tense Weeks, Melissa Harris-Perry’s MSNBC Show Is Canceled“While MSNBC may believe that I am worthless, I know better,” she wrote. “I know who I am. I know why M.H.P. Show is unique and valuable. I will not sell short myself or this show. I am not hungry for empty airtime. I care only about substantive, meaningful, and autonomous work. When we can do that, I will return — not a moment earlier.” “I am not a token, mammy, or little brown bobble head. I am not owned by Lack, Griffin, or MSNBC. I love our show. I want it back.”
Ms. Harris-Perry had been the host of her show, which focused on issues like racism and social justice, since 2012.
On Twitter, the former attorney general, Eric Holder Jr., called the move of Ms. Harris-Perry being dropped from MSNBC “a real loss.” He added, “She brought to television voices/perspectives too often unheard/ignored. Truth was her guide.”
