I completely understand and side with Zelu with her crash out at being fired. An entitled rich white man who thinks he's special and questions her credentials? The whole group of students didn't have the guts to confront Zelu in person and instead wait for her to go on vacation to report her. Fucking cowards.
On a real-life note, POC always had their credentials and education questioned by jealous people, mostly white people. RIP Jason Arday.
