It has nothing to do with "white privilege". I don't even say that term 
I think it's more contradictory that an AFRICAN person who should be more familiar with African traditions, etc is trying to accuse a black woman of blackface (and should know better). The fact that you are referring to them painting her with traditional african tribal makeup as "trying to darken her face" is laughable in itself. They didn't paint her brown to make her darker, they were painting her in tribal paint. There is a huge difference. I would expect an ignorant white person to not understand this but a black person? A black person who literally lives in Africa? Mess.  |
You do realize Africa has literally thousands of different diverse cultures right? Comprising of over 50 countries?
Neither I nor Fela come from those tribes that paint black faces (and I am yet to see one).
However Beyoncé is not African and therefore her putting on that tribal dress with ankara print makes her ensemble cringeworthy if anything
And considering your past ignorant posts about Africa you should be the last person trying this excuse.
Moreover the cover and shoot being dedicated to Fela Kuti (who didn't use blackface)doesn't make it any better.
What's actually contradictory in all this is how you not only condone but promote physical abuse towards black women whole you're a black woman yourself
