While our article clearly addressed the ways in which Lena Dunham is supported by a long legacy of white supremacy x white feminism, we wanted to deconstruct the ways in which her apology was abuse and not actually an apology.
CW/TW: mentions of sexual assault in this thread
To recap: Lena Dunham lied about having information which would disprove Aurora Perrineau's allegations of sexual assault against Murray Miller. Perrineau was r/ped by Miller while she was a part of Dunham's show, Girls.

Dunham and Jenni Konner issued a statement in support of Miller stating that they believed that Perrineau's allegations were part of the 3% of false r/pe claims. They had no reason to issue a statement like that beyond gaslighting a biracial Black woman who was assaulted at 17.
