What is truly disgusting about this incident is how easily the writers union rolled over. It is natural for people to use any means possible to achieve their goals and we should expect people in the native movement or black lives matter to scream racism or whatever else they think will advance their aims. What we should not put up with is allowing terms like cultural appropriation or white privilege  or settlers society to pass without criticism. The folks at the writers union have just indicated that they believe censorship is good and that only some opinions should be permitted. Many of our elite are so afraid of losing their positions that they will kowtow to any organized group and go along with utter foolishness. The natives who complained about this article need to ask themselves where they are coming from because they sound like racists and totalitarians.
