Lecturer who clashed with Laurence Fox over Meghan says ‘I’ve had to grow a pair’, “White people have no idea as to the privilege their whiteness affords them,” she told the audience at University of London
The treatment of Meghan became the first clashing point for Fox and Boyle.
The lecturer who clashed with Laurence Fox on Question Time calling him a “white privileged male” has said her life has transformed five weeks on from the explosive row.
Rachel C Boyle rowed with the actor over racism in Britain, in a clip which ended up going viral.
Speaking at an event around racism in Britain since ‘Megxit’, Boyle said: “The last month of my life has been transformative.
“I have had to grow a pair. I had them but I have had to exercise them.”

She explained that her interactions with people since the incident fell into three categories. While some were clearly uncomfortable talking to her about what happened, others ignored it and tried to act as though they had not heard the exchange.
But she said it was those who launched into attack or defence that was the most significant.
“Racism is endemic, it is embedded in everyday society and it is in micro aggressions. This incident has turned micro aggressions into bigger events.
“The moment I said ‘white privilege’ Mr Fox threw himself on the table and we see denial, defence and what I would categorise as delusion.
“White people have no idea as to the privilege their whiteness affords them,” she told the audience at University of London.yahoo
