The Epstein scandal has erupted across every corner of public life politics, entertainment, media, you name it. Each new revelation feels like another crack in a façade that protected powerful men for far too long. As survivors speak out and documents surface, the world is being forced to confront not only the scale of the abuse but the network of silence that enabled it. And now, as the question shifts from what happened to who knew, an uncomfortable truth has emerged from the wreckage.
For Black women, the revelation that no Black girls were allowed on Epstein’s island lands with a disturbing duality. It is not protection, not mercy, not grace but the grotesque reality that racism, in all its violence and exclusion, created a barrier that kept us out of the reach of a man who preyed on vulnerability.
It is a chilling twist: the same system that has historically endangered Black women’s bodies may, in this one horrific context, have been the very thing that kept us alive. There is no celebration in that. Only a sharp, painful awareness of how twisted the world can be. And yet, this moment forces a wider reckoning. If racism inadvertently spared Black girls from Epstein, what does that say about the structures that failed so many others?
What does it reveal about the way power selects its victims, and the way society looks away until the truth becomes too loud to ignore? As the world demands accountability from every corner of Epstein’s orbit, Black women are left holding a truth that is both haunting and galvanising: survival should never depend on exclusion, prejudice, or the whims of a predator. It should be a right. And the fact that it wasn’t for so many is the real scandal the world must confront next.
