if you don’t wear the style to appreciate a culture and instead decide to create a video similar to the chick that made this vid, it’s not appropriation nor appreciation. it’s disrespect.
Baby as a black woman. If it’s cute to you then wear it. It’s fucking hair . It’s whatever. The important thing is the intention. Culture is meant to be shared. Simple.
@@tamdell780people don’t need to praise anyone for culture but that also doesn’t mean that anyone of a different culture can claim something from another culture as their own
@soctt2737 look BW will are the orginators and blueprint of braids that was past down from our ancestors. Braids and the different designs of them have meaning behind it. In slavery days, our ancestors used braids and the designs of braids as maps to escape slavery. It provided directions for them. You tell me what WW was a slave and put her hair in braids to escape to freedom????? Research it!! FACTS!! The only thing WW did was bougut a lot of slaves to gain status in her communities. WW, not WM bought tons of slaves. You'll weren't into braids. RESEARCH it!!! FACTS!!! You"ll called us nappy hair. I bet you dont know what a hot combo is or used for? Plus, WW wasn't into having big butts and lips. Now, you'll want what we have. BW were and still ridicule for these things. I'm going to continue to claim what we were given as BW. BW hair has to look a certain way if she goes into an interview for a job. There's a lot of things BW has to deal with on a daily basis with her hair.
@soctt2737 daily basis from yte. I don't care if you'll want to wear braids, but give credit where credit is due and stop claiming things you'll never had or did. Some BW beautician are also showing you'll how to do braids and locs because you'll are interested in learning. Please go sit down somewhere and do your research . Appreciate BW for what we've done so far for society. We'll forever remain the blueprint of things we created. I don't care what no one says. Thanks for keeping us relevant. My black is going to always be beautiful
@@tamdell780 i do agree with you but i believe thanking is an overstatement is all, credit due more than anything yea i just wish people could see that every culture should share everything wether it be from braids to foods to clothing or even pain with one another not that it justifies any sort of stuff for white peoples ancestors but the present if you can understand what i mean, and also bw will always be relevant
I’m African and I don’t care if white people wear braids. It’s not a crime and the people telling you that you can’t have braids are CRAZY. So you do you, I think you look beautiful in braids 😭✋🏾
@@Maduniah_D It may be important but it shouldn’t matter if others want to try it out. Just like we try out different cultural foods, celebrate cultural holidays, etc. But the girl in the video calling people insecure was very wrong so others have a right to pop off.
Obviously thry are because these self entitled snowflakes seem to think it OK to bully her over something harmless and call it cultural appropriation when it isn't 🙄 completely rediculous because its a hairstyle no one owns it
@@dannyclawson8715 what?!? No black girl has ever “copied” a white girl with box braids. That’s African Culture, white people didn’t make up box braids, THEYRE the ones copying. Get your facts straight.
So your saying it’s illegal for her to braid her because of the HISTORY grow up she is making a point just because you’re black doesn’t mean other people can’t braid their hair you did’t create it now did you so everybody hear that saying she can’t braid her shut UP
This is the thing, until Black people, until Black Children can wear their own hair, or when a Federal Crown Act passes, when schools and business stop calling our hair unkept, messy, until we can wear it without putting on wigs to make you comfortable, or cutting it to perform sports, etc. because a lot of you are still intimidated by Black Peoples hair, when we can wear our hair and it’s not worn by other cultures as a party outfit and they take it off the next day and go to their professional meetings or business meanwhile you removed the hair because you yourself believe what society says about it, Our hair is not a costume, we wear it out of necessity, you want to wear it for cool points see, when you have no empathy on how Black Women were treated because of their hair, the legislation passed to cover it, shaving our heads and putting our hair in your furniture, or setting our hair on fire for night torches, while it was still on our heads etc. you can’t give us any of that back, but you can leave our hair alone and I myself don’t understand how none of you understand or maybe you just don’t care, and that would be vintage your people. Do a little research before you asked questions you’re using sarcasm for.
Although I do not agree with the way this video is worded, and I do understand why you're upset. You feel it unfair to have something, that historically, has gotten you harassed, and mercilessly ridiculed. That is not fair to you and is sickening to me as well. But as we move forward to the future, do you think you could accept people wearing typically black hair styles because they think they look nice? To have something that had been ridiculed for years turn into something many people can appreciate? It sounds like a pretty good rags to riches story to me! And while I do not deny that this harassment does not go on now, but how would you feel if society slowly started to integrate typically black hairstyles into common place?
The thing is we work hard for our culture to be accepted when we go to school there is a possibility we could be sent home when we wear our own cultural hairstyles we risk not getting jobs we even are called ghetto but when y’all started doing it it was trendy it literally got renamed by y’all when we created it and get judged harshly for wearing our own culture. So while we suffer y’all walk away and don’t even care
We are constantly told we need to straighten our hair to be pretty and professional so we use our culture and try but now after years of y’all being the standard you also want to use our culture that we fight for and profit off it
@@iloveallah8467 who said it matters tf, its just funny how she wanna do a hairstyle so bad when she don't even have the proper hair type for it, she just embarrassing herself

@@JEUndisputed dude, i agree that past is past and people should try to strive for development but they themselves said already that they've forgiven but not forgotten. Also, right back at you. It's 2022 so why are you still close minded when this era is supposed to be about being open to stuff? You tell people to get some 'intelligence' but it seems like you need to get it yourself first
There is so many things wrong with what you said. We black men and women are not insecure about other people wearing box braids or other style of braids we wear. It’s the double standard that we have an issue with. It’s acceptable and fashionable when people who look like you wear it but we are treated like shit and it’s unacceptable to wear when at school, work or other places. Stop thinking of only yourself and being condescending and understand the struggle black men and women go through on a daily basis just being who we are as a black person.
Typical Karen lol it doesn’t matter if it’s your hair or not the point is when Black would wear braids Black in the day my people were called ghetto and when whites do it it’s called exotic , Most Blacks don’t care about what you wear we just tell it like it is and how it was frowned upon by White Supremacist’s.
@@kamillegrady1267 this whole comment section sounds insecure. She wouldn’t be making a video about backlash if she wasn’t getting backlash from insecure people.

And since she apparently knows all about the history on box braids she should’ve expected at least one person to say something about it tf.
@@urmom-vh9ph nope not 11 either. And if you know they not box braids then why you tryna argue wit me when I was talking about her thinking she got box braids in the first place? And idc what you think is weird. And how is you gone tell me what words I find cool? Like that last part rlly just don’t make sense. But whatever keagan 😂😂
how are they hanging on by a thread? she's got a hood on, you can barely see the top, it's her hair from her scalp. how is that hanging on by a thread?
Before you get your braids think of the history of them and why as black men and women would get upset about it. We changed it from something undesired to a beautiful work of art and history.
The girl on the video was totally disrespectful but I still don’t understand why a white person can’t have braids. I’m Greek and women in Ancient Greece used to braid their hair too. It’s indeed a form of art and I believe that’s why everyone should be able to appreciate it🥰
I totally agree with you I never said she can’t get them just simply saying educate before. I have locs and I educated myself before getting them so if anyone ask me why I have lovelocs it was a invitation to educate on history and stories behind them.
@Cupcake LOve your culture. In your comment you said some don’t want there culture appreciated. Your basically saying you want us to leave your culture alone and to save your culture for you and not use it. Well that’s not how it works. Yes you should be educated on braids but you can also get them no matter your race. It doesn’t matter! Back then they were for survival but now they are just a cute look. Anyone can do rhem
I might be white but hun…those aren’t no box braids 😭 But i also do agree bc i get dirty looks when i wear braids which i think is unnecessary and ALL races can do anything they want, for example… Black women & men can wear natural hair White women & men can wear braids Asians women & men can wear braids and natural hair down IT DOES NOT MATTER UR RACE!!! JUST DO WHAT MAKES U HAPPY ❤
I'm not even black but ima have to settle this as a third party race of both of y'all which is latin I think personally if a person chooses to be mad at you wearing box braids cuz culture they not wrong and they ain't insecure you just flaunting your privelage with this video if you don't want a race to care don't attack them about it
Right! If she gets backlash for wearing box braids she can just tell the people that it’s her hair and since she claims to know the history behind the style the can just say she thinks it’s cute but this video was unnecessary and shady. It’s the stank tone for me
Attack them ? Ok so first of all u can not and I’m gonna repeat this can not speak from a black persons perspective so other ppl can have their opinions if ppl think she’s overreacting then so be it .
Not trying to upset you here but technically Latin peoples race is Caucasian. Latin is your ethnicity. There is only 4 races which are white/Caucasian, Mongoloid/Asian, Negroid/Black, and Australoid.
I don't mind white people wearing box braids as long as you don't try to act black or inappropriate to my culture 😔 white people need to find there own culture other than raisins in potato salad.
As a black girl myself(this is my opinion ), it's not that I think it's bad just as long as you don't claim that you invented the hairstyle(looking at you Kim with those Walmart box braids). Also, the braids like cornrows, or box braids can brutally mess up your hair if it is not curly enough and make it fall out!
As an African, I don’t have an issue. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. What I need to convey. There are certain cultural differences, that were frowned upon and has a stigma associated with it, many had to suffer ultimately endure in silence. With little to no help from our counterparts. However once the dominant race embraces it, all of a sudden it's cool, hip & trendy!! And if anyone Africans brings up the contradiction. We're told to get over! That's my issue! But I can appreciate that you've acknowledge the origin. That's a step in the right direction for me👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
@@JEUndisputed you think you are all that but you are not you think you can control people and what they say but you can't you especially can't control what comes out of my mouth cause i am gonna say what I want to say and you're the one who discusses me eww you're nasty
The reason why black women say it’s disrespectful because your people back in the 1700s en forced the tigon law and this law forced black women to wear hair scarves because of our Beautiful unique hairstyles were considered a threat to your people so that’s why it’s so offensive.
Just because you're a black doesn't mean you know me better. Let me explain something to you because you're probably Young. I find myself having to explain this to very young black people on the constant basis comma because you guys have absolutely no idea about the black American culture going back past 15 years ago.. These grades are very important to black women and it means something to them. It is a hair identity that is close to their core identity as a black person, since you said you are one🤔🤔 You should know that. Black people's culture have been usurped. over 100 years.. Right now, white people are getting their panties in a bunch because of a little black actress playing The Little Mermaid, they feel offended. They don't want a black actor playing a beloved white character. We gave them our rock and roll music and other things that belong to us things that they like in find cool. Black people accepted like you.. they're up in arms about black actors playing characters in Hollywood
No no no she’s the problem, please remember she will go on tiktok daily calling black ppl thugs, insulting the community, and saying blm is bad. Shen she’ll go wear one of our damn hairstyles(making a mockery of it rather than appreciating it) and do this shit
“ it shows your insecurities “ we the ones with the culture and hair that’s actually able to handle being braided 🙂 we aren’t insecure we are warning you that your gonna be when you ain’t got no hair left to braid🤣🤣🤣
Exactly even though culture is supposed to be shared it’s not a requirement we don’t have to share it if we don’t want to. The same people who she’s calling “insecure” that’s literally our culture so what are you even talking about💀. You want our culture just say that.

SHE REALLY THOUGHT SHE ATE😭😭😭❤️❤️ They look nice I guess (show us the parts ma'am, I wanna see that scalp💀) Just wondering if her real hair is still attached to the scalp
the funny thing is braided hair is actually originally white person culture with vikings, they used the braided hair first. so if it’s not okay for a white girly to wear braids because of “cultural appropriation” then actually it’s the black people in the wrong… but i think everyone and anyone should be allowed to braid there hair whether it’s with box braids or just their natural hair
Girl!! Ain't nobody hating on you. We just don't want y'all to end up losing all your hair. We got thick hair, y'all don't. Go ahead, use "our culture"😂. Just don't complain when you end up bald headed🤷🏽♀️
If you knew the history then you have your answer. You have literally a million types of hairstyles you can easily do with your type of hair. Having black hair is NOT easy. There’s a very limited amount of things you can do with black hair, and what you can do takes a ton of work which in return has created a beautiful culture around it. Box braids was a unique style to show off the beauty of black hair and black women. Out of all the hairstyles you could’ve chosen. This is the one you chose. Please pull your head out of your rear end and use your head. Stop being ignorant.
@@lanabandzy9102 because it looks like that is what is happening. Y’all act like racism doesn’t exist for certain of people and then get angry when people assume that your racist. Apply this logic to a black woman if a a black woman has been receiving hatred by white people you think she gonna like white people. The answer is no especially if their are white folks getting angry and no trying to do anything about it.
Just shows that she doesn’t know the “history behind box braids” cause those aren’t even box braids there plats. And we aren’t saying that all types of braids are meant for us because there are types of braid styles that you guys can use (such as French braids and etc.) What is not ok is when y’all claim to know our culture and our history when y’all can care less. And just because you learned a little bit about slavery in high school doesn’t make you “educated”. So please don’t claim to know the history and then call black women insecure for calling you out.

As a BW I don't care that you use our style(s), it's when you shame us for it, use it and then claim it! That is the problem I have. I appreciate you admitting you know where it comes from but at the same time you threw shade saying that it was all "your" hair not fake hair and insinuated that all BW wear fake hair in box braids, which is not true! But even if it was, just like it is your prerogative to wear your hair how you want, it is theirs as well. No insecurities here, just truth. But while we are on the subject, name ONE thing that white people created/invented that has been adopted by other cultures/races? Just one... I'll wait.
the invention of wigs by Egyptian royalty and while this was around 2700 BCE, a white man in 1870’s also invented a front lace wig used to cover up baldness while still having a natural look of hair. although Egyptians (egyptians came in many shades of brown and white a lot like southern or coastal european countries or western asian countries like india) were the first to come up the idea of wigs a white man was the first to come up with lace front wigs. i would give both ethnicities credit for their inventions especially on how big of the impact it has on everyday modern life. not only did women take this invention but so did african americans in the 1900’s. i hope you know that i am not coming for anyone and that i understand why black women adopted this invention because of the troubles they faced because of their skin color or hair type. but we have to understand that our world has been around for a very long time and that every culture and religion has been robbed of the owner ship of an idea or object. i think that anyone and everyone should be able to do what they want as long as they know the history of it and that it won’t effect that person health negatively like women with straight hair that get box braids. i think that it is time to just appreciate everyone and everyone’s culture and learn how to be respectful and open to other people appreciating it.
@@kylie3989 I do not take your comment as you coming for me, but I will urge you to do more research before regurgitating the lies you’ve been fed! First and foremost ANCIENT EGYPTIANS were different shades of BLACK, Not White! The Egyptians that occupy modern day Egypt ARE NOT the original people! They’re of Arab & European decent. The ORIGINAL Arabs are BLACK, not this whited out version you see on TV, but dark black. Europeans have spent thousands of years RAPING and pillaging everywhere they went.. emphasis on RAPING! It is what they did in the Americas with the NATIVE BLACK people that were there, what they did to the Mexicans in Mexico, what they did to the Aboriginals in Australia, same thing in Brazil, Puerto Rico, Cuba, DR,.. you get the point ( they didn’t get everyone everywhere they went, although they surely tried)! Besides even if a “WHITE MAN” created the first lace front, wigs were invented by BLACK EGYPTIANS! He didn’t invent Jack.. what he did was modified someone else’s idea/invention per usual practice of Europeans. So again I reiterate, name ONE thing that has been created/invented (NOT STOLEN OR MODIFIED which is modern terms for raping and pillaging) by White people that has been adopted by other cultures/races??? AGAIN, I’ll wait…….
@@kylie3989 Oh and BTW the reason why Black women had so many issues in this country regarding our hair wasn’t because all of us couldn’t grow it… it was because everything that was out on the market was for White women, and if you know anything about hair, you’d know that for a Black woman to use products meant for White women destroys our hair! Plus we were forced to fry and dye our hair with chemicals and extreme heat just to be able to compete for jobs to support our families.. plus to try to fit in with our European counterparts to avoid the taunting. From slavery we were taught to be ashamed of our skin color as well as our NATURAL hair! Thankfully, a lot of us are removing that shame and are accepting OUR NATURAL BEAUTY! As for me personally, I am mixed race (Black, Native and White to be specific) but I’m “DOMINANTLY” Black!
@@AL_4083 well i can tell that your agreeing with me by stating a more complicated version of my statement “black women having to go through troubles regarding their race and hair” meaning socially and economically…
I was literally shocked to hear that because not all of us have hated and were hating so actually assuming that we all were hating just made things wayy worse.
Um she gonna assume you hate her because that’s all she be getting. Connect the dots, everybody wanna be talking about what she’s doing and how she shouldn’t do a hairstyle. If a whole lot people are doing that and your taking offense because that’s all she’s seen then maybe you should reconsider on getting offended. Let’s apply this logic to dark black woman. Not light skinned because I’m addressing something else aka colorism. If a black woman has been getting hate by white people black people asian people etc. and that’s all they seen their gonna assume that your gonna be out here hating.
@@notinterested6135 what dots is he or she supposed to connect. I have been getting racist comments from some people of her race most my life, but do I go around accusing every Caucasian person to be racist?? Please Don’t be stupid. She is literally asserting dominance on a group of people because they advised her not to appropriate their culture. Not all May feel a great tension about it, I myself could give little fucks it’s her hair and karma is always a bitch but her generalizing is the problem. So get the Fuck off her with your stupid analogy
@@notinterested6135 Annitta’s post didn’t reflect being offended. She was just saying that it doesn’t make sense to value and acknowledge cultural segregationists over the many who appreciate her hair. As for your point that hate is all she ever received, it begs the question why. Is it because she lives in a small enclosed community, or is hate comments in real life or online the only thing she focuses on over the compliments? She obviously has access to the internet, so she could meet people who are opened minded outside of where she lives. From listening to her and her words, she reminds me of people I met that feed off of negative energy from others. Nothing she said showed confidence based on facts, or shouts out to those who don’t think in harmful ways. No amount of compassion or compliments get through to people like her who live off of being hated.
@@justabearbrowsingyoutube4968 you don’t know what I was talking about at all. First I wasn’t talking about the post second, to assume she’s from the suburbs is a bit racist given the fact that she is white. Not every white person lives in gated community with small poodles and marble fountains. I was responding to the comment, so please don’t act like you know the convo when your only reading 50% of it. The fact that you also found a excuse for cultural segregationist is a red flag. You damn well know that is a white person were to do this they would lose their jobs. Enough with the excuses it’s racism end of discussion.
Yuck cause you people do stuff like this… I didn’t care at all it’s more cause it’s damaging. But she gets them just to insult black people. Gross. If I was doing something like this I’d just go about my day not run it in because a few are misrepresenting a community
Not hate coming from me, just the frustration in knowing that myself as well as many other people of colour got seriously bullied and made to feel as though they could not wear their hair in this way despite it technically being their own style while other people get to wear their hair the same way without the same consequences
I don't know why people are giving her so much hate when it's just a hairstyle, no one owns it so why should it be dictated that only black ppl can wear it just because it originated from them?
Never had it happen bookie our hair won’t just fall out bc it’s braided 😍if y’all are mad jus say it learn to move on can’t gatekeep every little thing
@@swagmatronsheesh3336 bookie… most braided styles, like box braids, cornrows, tribal braids, etc. require LOTS of grip. If you’re not black, and you don’t have a course texture of hair, when you get those types of styles, there’s going to be a lot of pulling and tension at your strands, causing it to break and fall off. When you have type 1-2 hair, you’re hair isn’t going to have the same elasticity as someone with 3-4 hair. It’s called science sis. But if you wanna lose your edges, that’s on you. Now have a good day beloved
I’ll tell you why- Everytime a black woman would wear braids, Afro , any traditional hairstyle that is black it would be considered “ghetto” among a bunch of other unfair terms. Everytime black women did something with our hair, Everytime we wore something it would be “ghetto” or “undesirable”. Me being a 22 y/o black woman myself I remember a lot of white girls picking on me for the braids in my hair, only for them to turn around and ask me to braid theirs. It’s just irritating and hits a different nerve when however you try to do your hair it’s looked down upon but on a different race of women (white women) it’s considered “nice” “pretty” “unique”. We never get our credit, it’s always given to someone else. So, we’re like for y’all to sit up here and poke fun at our hairstyles and then turn around and try to wear them? Yeah, we mad and got something to say cause it’s not for y’all.
@@JEUndisputed There was a story of a white girl with straight hair who decided to wear box braids. She decided to be ignorant and wear box braids while disrespecting black girls. The black girls tried to warn her and tell her hair isn't meant for box braids because it was a protective style. The white girl took the warning as a form of jealousy and didn't listen. A few days later her hair fell out. Moral is that Box braids are not for everyone's hair. If you dont believe it let's see if its still *trendy* when you wake up to your hair on your pillow.

I grew up in a mixed family. I don’t understand why people are mad. Unless it’s Africans getting mad at Americans (black Americans too) for “cultural appropriation” In Africa, black Americans are still called Americans. I don’t believe I can call someone “African-American” unless they have moved from Africa to America. That’s like a German moving to America, they would be German-American. But after generations of the cultural pot mixing, you are just American. No matter what color you are by then. So in conclusion, I DONNOT care as long as you are not being racist.

Lots of girls did actually, lots of women braided their hair before going to sleep to prevent knots. It’s only become fashionable as of lately (think within the last 10-15 years) so the only difference is they aren’t hiding what they look like at home.
As a black girl I don’t mind it when others were box braids as long as u ain’t racist and you respect and understand the history behind it and why some might find it disrespectful for u to wear it

Girl, no one is hating getting your hair braided is culture and I don’t think I necessarily get mad. When white people have their hair braided. It’s just that you need to learn the culture I guess.
The origin of braids can be traced back 5000 years in African culture to 3500 BC-they were very popular among women.” “Braiding started in Africa with the Himba people of Namibia,” says Pace. “These people have been braiding their hair for centuries.13 Nov 2023
No one is hating on you. Most Caucasian hair doesn't even look good with those types of braids so there's nothing to hate on. It's probably your attitude that people don't like more than the braids though. You know the culture but your attitude is somewhat snobbish. Just like you don't feel like you owe the people you stole the style from, no one owes you either. Black women have gotten kicked out of school, asked to leave work, told they are unprofessional and ghetto for the very style that you now have the privilege to rock. Not to mention, because of the texture of some black hair, the only way to manage it is to braid it. It's more than just a trend. No one can stop you from wearing your hair braided. Free country, but you can't force black women to like it if they don't.
They don’t need to like it, as a black male I see this comment as ridiculous. Although they don’t need to like it it’s very messed up to speak negatively twords people. If you have nothing nice to say keep your mouth shut. One of the many parts of human decency. Now going back to the braids she doesn’t owe nobody anything. She did HER hair by HER self. Also, what do you mean by stealing? If she stole the hair style it would mean white people owned it now. The fact that you said “No one is hating on you” when I’ve seen comments say “you’re ugly” or “you look stupid” so that’s not hate? If you still thinking that way you need to realize what “hate” means.
As an African let me know explain .braids are a protective style which is targeted for type 4,3 and 2 if you know the history of box braids you should know that type 1 hair (search on the internet) always tends to rip out as type 1 scalp is softer than the types of hair textures .many other cultures and tribes use braids even asians and europeans you aren’t special like that most africans don’t care as when oyibo(white) people come to African countries like Seychelles angola South Africa and even Namibia ,many white women pay to get their braids done and they don’t appropriate they appreciate. So not only black and african wear box braids as long as its safe meaning your scalp is moisturized.and nobody is insecure we dont like it when random white women do braids whether box or fulani braids (search since you know) and give it dumb names like ok do braids styles and use the right name.also know the trauma many black people in America went through as women where told to put their hair away whilist white women had a large variety of hairstyles they ran to box braids and sew ins and even relaxer . So please nobody is insecure ,we don’t really care but since you know the history reove the video as you have contradicted your own statements and so called personality (from braids ) 😊.
Babes WE DIDNT SAY WE DONT LIKE YOU WITH BRAIDS we didn’t even say anything about y’all wearing braids so at this point YOU JUST MAKING STUFF UP CAUSE YALL BORED LIKE IF YALL WANT BRAIDS HAVE IT CAUSE WHY YALL ASSUMING THAT WE SAY WE DONT CARE CAUSE ITS A HAIRSTYLE no one ain’t gonna have an opinion on your hair black people typically wear them to look more involved and more like you so STOP ASSUMING and THOSE ARNT BOX BRAIDS THOSE ARE PLATS AND YOU OVER THERE TALKING ABOUT YOU KNOW EVERYTHING BOX BRAIDS HONEY BYE I CANT TAKE YOU SERIOUSLY 😂😂
And if you knew the history you wouldnt be so racist about it. Historically white people wear braida and dreads for centuries. 😒 Good lord the entitlement of you ppl
She’s acting like we’re stopping her, do whatever you want just don’t get mad when there’s consequences 🤷🏾♀️ We have the same consequences when we perm, sh!t gets dry and thin asf. Don’t see us doing “dear white women” videos 💀
For real she really thought she was doing something here. It's like non black people using the n-word sure you can do it but don't be mad if I call you a racist because of it
@@kasketbase8741The dear white woman videos were from multiple. Asians, Black women, And some white men like other races more for some reason. It's because of disrespect like this. Them mocking African gods. Saying stuff about voodoo, Racists things, Videos like this. We have a reason
@@HealingIsOk I see you’re point for sure but to deny that the “dear white woman” videos are more prevalent is just disingenuous as hell. That’s all I’m saying
