\"I wish I had the privilege to sit on the fence. In order for me to do that I would have to strip myself of my identity and that's not something I can do,\" Beresford later tweeted of the viral moment. \"It's not any of our places to pick apart claims of racism in order to make us feel more comfortable.\"
Morgan has not yet spoken out about his departure, only tweeting a GIF of a ticking clock.
