But About Beyonce’s Jeans
Wrong, as in inaccurate, is wrong, even when they’re Americans. And, this image – understandably, a very common meme right now – is wrong in that the sentiment generally surrounding it is inaccurate. Despite what a lot of us believe, Beyoncé did, in fact, catch a lot of hate and derision over her Levi’s ad campaign, and it was all race-based and racist.
While the privileged, White liberals mostly kept their mouths shut on it, the ever-angry Blacks piled on Beyoncé due to her blond hair and light skin tone. They really, really thought that she was just “too White.”
Apparently, this is a little-known fact, thanks to most of the Lamestream Media staying carefully silent on intraracial hate amongst the Blacks. But yeah, they were even defacing billboards for that Levi’s ad campaign by whitewashing over Beyoncé’s face and exposed skin.
So, while privileged, White liberals might have approved of her and Levi’s ad campaign, many Blacks despised it enough to damage property in “protest.”
So, if you think that Beyoncé’s ads got a free pass, you’re wrong. There was plenty of outrage and outright hate; it just wasn’t mentioned much in media outlets and platform which we frequent.
