Jenna reacted the way most people act when called out on their shit.
It's what makes solving racism almost impossible.
No one wants to believe anything they do is racist or is a result of implicit bias.
Then when they get taken to task, rather than apologize and learn from it they get indignant an defensive.
This is one of the problems of defining racism by "what's in your heart" rather than the tangible negative effects it has on POC.
