Robb I’m not sure what’s going on with you but you have been really
aggressive and dismissive lately.

And while I don’t regret not making a complete stranger my business partner
without having spent any time getting to know them first, it’s a pretty big
stretch to suggest that I’m responsible for any future conflicts folks had
with Almaz.

Additional, I’ve spent the last two years doing a lot of my own personal
work around internalized racism. I’m not suggesting that I have absolved
myself of my own biases but I am trying to share information that I have
found helpful in understanding how white supremacist culture operates. Take
it or leave it obviously, but I’d ask other folks if this is the kind of
behavior they want representing the Omni community.

If I’ve done something to piss you off I really wish you’d talk to me about
it instead of responding to me with such anger.

Niki
