Yiannopoulos, a tech editor at Breitbart News, has drawn significant backlash for consistently provocative statements on the conservative website - and for getting banned from Twitter last year. That project, currently titled How to Be Heard, had been set to publish through TED Books, a Simon & Schuster imprint. 'So I told my agent over the weekend to pull the project.' 'I can't in good conscience let them publish it while they also publish Milo,' Gay told BuzzFeed News on Wednesday. It seems readily apparent that the writer of a book titled Bad Feminist would register significant disagreement - to put it politely - with a writer who has called feminism 'bowel cancer.'īut when Roxane Gay realized she was to be published on the imprint of the same publisher that recently signed Milo Yiannopoulos to a six-figure book deal, she made that disapproval quite clear.
She recently wrote World of Wakanda #1, a Black Panther prequel. Roxane Gay is also the author of Bad Feminist as well as An Untamed State and Ayiti.
