Karen, explained in comic format.

It& #39;s hard to explain such a complicated matter in a short comic, for please forgive me for not diving deeper in some nuances.
Also: I am not black, and I& #39;m Canadian, so I& #39;m not an authority on the matter. I just know how to draw. Listen to black voices.

White men: Don& #39;t use the term Karen. Coming from you, it& #39;s just misogynistic.
Karen is a word coined by people of color, mostly black people, in reaction to acts of racism.

And if you& #39;re a white woman campaigning against the use of the term Karen--- wonder why you& #39;re not campaigning against the racist acts of the ones that get called Karen.

I feel like I haven& #39;t explained myself correctly re: white men who use Karen. Not wanting to remove it from customer service people, it& #39;s just that there& #39;s a wave of white men who use it to speak of women they don& #39;t like.

And since this is getting attention: I& #39;ve been unemployed since march-- anyone want to hire an illustrator/graphic designer/writer? (I& #39;m in Montréal)
