Lara of the Pretty Basic (YouTube channel) has uploaded a second video on the Open Letter to Tim Holtz after Tim Holtz posts his reply to the allegations on the YouTube video,

Here is the link to the previous post: http://craftersengagement.com/2020/07/the-accusations-about-the-facebook-group-removing-a-card-relating-to-blm-or-silencing-black-artists-is-also-false-tim-holtz-replies-after-a-youtube-open-letter-to-him-trends-in-the-crafting-commun/

I am the maker of the card this group has been talking about. For the record, I made the card during a highly emotional time. Without thinking, I posted it on the THA Facebook page. After about 15 minutes and further thinking on my part, I removed the post. NO ONE asked me to do this. I was not pressured by anyone to do this. My choice. It saddens me that this is being used to find fault with Tim Holtz, Mario Rossi and Zoe Hillman. All three of them have always supported and encouraged all artists and makers.

Tim, Mario, and Zoe: you all know how to reach me. I hope this has all been a giant misunderstanding.
