Look: Shonda Rhimes Rips Twitter Troll for Explaining Racism

The TV titan put the rude fan in her place.

Don't play with Shonda Rhimes.
One Twitter user learned that the hard way after they foolishly attempted to come for the TV titan over some comments she made on social media. Shonda pretty much banished the troll from watching any of her shows and we don't doubt she has the power to make that happen.

It all started when Shonda tweeted out an open letter from the Oregon Shakespeare Festival condemning racist attacks against one of its company members:

Someone decided to take the opportunity to call out Shonda for some of the behind-the-scenes drama between castmembers on her show Grey's Anatomy, which happened years ago:

Welp. You didn't think Miss Rhimes was gonna let that one slide, did you?

The troll then took a shot at Grey's star Ellen Pompeo, who appears on the cover of People magazine to talk about raising her biracial children, and Shonda went into full mama bear mode:

And that's how you deal with whitesplaining like a boss. 
We know Ms. Rhimes will do anything to stand up for her shows and her cast. See how she stood up to racist trolls coming for Jesse Williams after his BET Awards speech with BET Breaks above.
