Really, Jezebel? You represent the BLACK WOMAN, Sam Irby who ACTUALLY wrote it with a pic of a chicken? Damn!

Also Sam Irby left out of title?
From the article above it sounded like the show about her was being written by two white women (Abbi Jacobson and Jessi Klein). Clicking through to the Deadline article it sounds like Irby will be involved with the show writing/producing as well, but that didn’t really come across in the piece above.
Sam Irby is a black woman
Ok that wasn’t difficult:
I was initially confused and had a similar reaction, so I clicked on the linked to find out. The main woman of the article, Sam Irby behind “Bitches Gotta Eat,” has a profile photo and she appears to be black. The woman on the left is Abby from Broad City, the woman on the right is Jessi from the other show. Sam Irby…
Two white women writing about blackness? Did I miss something?
As in a racist purpose? I feel like a Jezzie is more likely to demonstrate inadvertent racism, but what do I know.
Irby will be writing on the show as well which is not made clear in this piece.
I would be curious to know what some folks think about two white women adapting the work of a black woman.
its all fun till you realize one of these guys has beaten somebody to death.
well at least they kept the GAY out of Russia
