You can't always control your racist fans. But you can make them not your fans. If half of your fans are racist, then you can make it clear to those fans that you don't like them, and that you don't want them around. Let them choose another symbol. Don't let yourself become the figurehead of their racism.
If this seems like a lot to expect a young woman to do, remember that Haley and Paige do this. Remember that the Black women targeted by the racist fans, are the same age as Caitlin.
