Virginia parent responds to writer who labeled female Youngkin voters racist 'scorned Karens'
Fox News
A Virginia mother responded Friday to a Daily Beast columnist who asserted that White women who voted for Virginia Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin acted on “white hot rage anxiety and resentment.”
In his column, Ali claimed many Americans thought such women were "won over" by the rise of Beyonce Knowles, Oprah Winfrey and chai tea beverages, but that instead they "will always turn on people of color on a dime to uphold oppressive systems that ensure they remain influential and powerful handmaidens of White supremacy."
Virginia parent Brooke Corbett, who voted for Youngkin on Tuesday, told "The Story" that she did not seek out a confrontation on education policy and said her objections have nothing to do with race:
"In a short period of time, we started hearing more about this thing called, critical race theory, which I had never heard about. And after some investigation, some requests that I started seeing on the news, a lot of taxpayer money … had been invested in some teacher training and that would be rolled into student curriculum that I didn’t agree with," she said.
