The podcast clips of years ago have recently resurfaced, and I want to remedy it directly,” wrote Escobar in a Friday Instagram post. “In these clips, I used a word that I should never have used, a racial insult. I used it ignorant, not fully understanding the weight, the story or the pain behind. I was not trying to be offensive or harmful, but I now recognize that the intention does not excuse the impact. And the impact of this word is real. It is linked to generations of trauma.
