its her first official in-depth interview since the split here's a bit:
"I’m fine. I am not a civil rights case. I don’t want anyone to march on nothing. I am not a cause. Go to Flint. Real horrible shit happening in the world. I’m a relatively well off, way over educated black girl who had like eight jobs, and now seven. I am fine.
What I do think is not fine is that the end of the show is the end of a space where a lot of voices otherwise can’t be. I do think mass media has a responsibility to put those voices there. I don’t care if I’m not on air. I want those people there. What I do hope is that an outcry about Nerdland forces, encourages, emphasizes, pushes people who do have a platform to say, “Wait a minute: there is room, interest and an audience for that thing.” Whether I have another cable show is pretty irrelevant."
