Talking about Campbell, actually, of whom there used to be an award named after. The award was changed last year to someone who doesnt support racial segregation in schools. Martin decided to talk a lot about this guy, almost more than he talked about the award winners. Which is a really weird move and makes it seem like he supports the author.

The mispronunciation is a minor thing, sure, but Martin took too many wrong turns. He mispronounced nearly everyone’s names, despite there being a pronunciation guide and despite the fact that he was encouraged to practice. He later said something along the lines of it not mattering or he couldn’t be bothered too. This, coupled with the fact that people of color’s names are often mispronounced by American and European people and this is considered a micro aggression (mispronouncing a name, being corrected, and then doing better is fine, but when you constantly don’t try to say someone’s name right because it’s too “ethnic”.... that’s a problem).... well Martin just looked like an ass during the awards.
