All of this over a crew member? From a completely hierarchical standpoint, it's really telling that they were willing to overlook the racism of someone who's so easily replaceable, which frankly implies they'd gladly and blindly accept way worst coming from people with actual power.

I've seen crew members get fired for mundane things like simply saying "hi" to talent, let alone for wearing clothing with violent messages. This set must've been toxic as hell.

This demon, how long until Sarah P lisps a cute story about RM and everyone laughs and this is forgotten?
Angelica is being very brave because abusers in Hollywood still have the upper hand and the ones calling out everything wrong with it get punished.

I always wondered how Sarah Paulson is so beloved by folks but has chosen to spend the last decade+ of her career working closely with this guy. It seems like there are a couple of cliques of Untouchable Gays in Hollywood who never have to own their choices.

Same. It's a crucial detail to understanding the situation. Leaving it up to the public's imagination is not productive.

if the shirt was offensive to angelica who was actually there, there is nothing productive about specifying what it said when retelling the story lol it isn’t up to you to decide if it was bad enough or not bc you weren’t there

In the article, she explains. One was a Trump build the wall shirt and another involved white hands praying in front of the US flag with "I Don't Kneel" on it.

I wonder if the crew member's first amendment right would've been upheld in such high regard if his shirt had "Ryan Murphy is an asshole" printed on it instead.

I just read the THR interview that they’re likely referencing here! I can’t blame Angelica for leaving Hollywood after her experiences. I’m curious to see whether she moves forward in the political scene or if she goes another direction.
