Taylor Swift has a lot of famous friends and girlfriend aims high too. Taylor's squad consists of supermodels, Oscar nominees and a Penn State grad. What I've noticed, however, is a glaring lack of black people in her posse.
To be fair, she is friends with Demetria Lovato and Selena Gomez—so word up to my Latinas—but I'd like to round out this friendship rainbow with a bit more color. Now, I'M NOT SAYING THAT TAYLOR SWIFT IS RACIST. I'm just saying that she's tiptoeing along the line of becoming like the three quarters of white Americans who don't have a single non-white friend.
Luckily, I can help remedy that. I would like to find Taylor Swift a black friend or two because I hear that it's benevolent acts like this that get you into heaven and I'm trying to chill with Oprah in the afterlife.
Not just anybody can be Taylor Swift's first black friend. We need to find the Jackie Robinson of black friends, so let's go through some questions that potential candidates will need to answer to my satisfaction:
How do you feel about listening to her music?
Are you comfortable with/do you have the patience to explain stuff to her?
How willing are you to take her to black events?
You have to help her with the dancing.
Do you like cats?
Are you cool with being the only black person around?
