Transcript of Cartoon<\/strong><\/p>\n

This panel has four panels, plus a tiny “kicker” panel below the bottom of the cartoon. Each panel shows a Black woman wearing Saddle Oxford shoes is talking to a white woman with glasses and a pony tail.<\/p>\n

\nGLASSES: The phrase “white fragility” sounds racist to me.<\/p>\n
