Its strength is that it names the person, the original post and its date, and reports how the matter actually ended rather than leaving the allegation open. Its limit is that it reports one individual's account and decision rather than an independent investigation or a statement from Beyonce's team, which the piece does not claim to have obtained.FactsClaims Backed By This Source (11 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested2Reliability tier 2: an unsigned staff piece on Remezcla, an established culture and identity outlet with editorial oversight, but without a named byline to carry individual accountability for the reporting.NotesWell-attestedOriginally published May 3, 2017. Read directly. Reports that Maximiliano Goiz's April 23, 2016 Facebook post explaining Oshun's symbolism appeared closely mirrored, without credit, in the "How to Make Lemonade" collector's box set book, and that Goiz, after considering how to respond, chose not to pursue any action, saying he was glad the work was raising awareness of his Lucumi/Santeria faith.CitationPublisherWell-attestedRemezclaPublication YearWell-attested2017URLWell-attestedhttps://remezcla.com/culture/beyonce-lemonade-box-set/Source TypeWell-attestednews featureClaims Backed By This Source (11 claims)This source backs 11 claims across the atlas.
