Fails the Kind and Favors the Wrong
In episode 31, Kathy explained that at the beginning of May YouTube removed her channel, Angels 2nd Class, without warning and without providing a specific explanation. This situation led her to experience severe depression. Since this began, Kathy participated in a PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) and an Intensive Outpatient Therapy (IOP) program and plans to return to posting episodes once she has fully recovered.
Since there is no direct way to address this issue, Kathy has sent letters to the executives at YouTube, Google, and the Alphabet Company. However, she has yet to receive any responses from them. Below, you can find a copy of her letter.
Additionally, Kathy has reached out to various media and news outlets with her own letters. A sample of each of these letters is available for you to read below.
