RETRACTION

This retraction has been amended as requested.

Some of you may be aware of the dialogue surrounding an essay by Summer Brennan. In an essay I wrote, I wrote this about Summer’s essay: "In this essay, words, concepts, title excerpts and sentences are pulled from other writers, without naming them.” I misspoke. Summer Brennan did not take anyone's words or sentences without naming them. What I meant to say was that I felt she was referencing several different essays recently written on this platform as well as engagements from Notes. I thought she should have named Elizabeth Tai, and it seemed to me like her essay was a response to mine.

The essay I wrote has been unpublished of my own accord.
