“I have not only claimed these identities as my own when I had absolutely no right to do so — when doing so is the very epitome of violence, of thievery and appropriation, of the myriad ways in which non-Black people continue to use and abuse Black identities and cultures — but I have formed intimate relationships with loving, compassionate people who have trusted and cared for me when I have deserved neither trust nor caring...”

“Mental health issues can never, will never, neither explain nor justify, neither condone nor excuse, that, in spite of knowing and regularly critiquing any and every non-Black person who appropriates from Black people, my false identity was crafted entirely from the fabric of Black lives,” Krug said. “I am not a culture vulture. I am a culture leech.”

Krug then referred to herself as a “coward” who deserves to be “canceled”.

“I believe in accountability,” she said. “And I believe in cancel culture as a necessary and righteous tool for those with less structural power to wield against those with more power”.

“I should absolutely be cancelled,” Krug continued. “No. I don’t write in passive voice, ever, because I believe we must name power. So. You should absolutely cancel me, and I absolutely cancel myself”.

She then apologized to everyone that she has “harmed” and “gaslit” by pretending to be black.
