Lalonders admitted she discriminated against white 
people during a presentation for the Game Devs of Color 
Expo 2021 that was recently highlighted by LibsofTikTok.
In the presentation Lalonders states, “ValiDate has a team of all people of color. We have no white 
people on our team. I did that because I wanted to create a safe environment. And I know the best way for the environment 
to be safe is to be around people who are just like me.”
“And I'm not saying that white 
people in the industry are creating unsafe environments. I'm not saying that. That is not what I'm saying,” she said. “I'm saying sometimes it is hard to work with white people because they think 
that something may be okay, but it was really 
a microaggression, and no one wants to deal with that while you're trying to make a game that they love.”
