The fire got started when Kylie posted this photo on Instagram over the weekend with her hair in cornrows which she captioned – “I woke up like this.”
Upon stumbling across the photo, actress Amandla Stenberg commented on the photo pointing out racial double standards saying QUOT E - “when u appropriate black features and culture but fail to use ur position of power to help black Americans by directing attention towards ur wigs instead of police brutality or racism #whitegirlsdoitbetter”
Kylie responded to Amandla’s comment with a sassy response saying QUOTE – “Mad if I don’t, Mad if I do…Go hang w Jaden or something.”
And by Jaden she is referring to Jaden Smith who Amandla went to prom with this year.
Amandla then took to her own Instagram to post a lengthy statement to elaborate on her comments. Without mentioning Kylie’s name Amandla said QUOTE – “Black features are beautiful. Black women are not…This, at least, seems to be the mentality surrounding black femininity and beauty in a society built upon eurocentric beauty standards. While white women are praised for altering their bodies, plumping their lips and tanning their skin, black women are shammed although the same features exist on them naturally. Deeply ingrained into culture is the notion that black female bodies, at the intersect of oppression, are less than human and therefore unattractive…Often when they are sexualized it is from a place of racial fetishism."
The statement went on to say that “when the media is not ignoring black women altogether, they are disparaging them. As culture shifts and racial tensions are tested through the vehicle of the #BlackLivesMatter movement, it is important to question: Do female black lives matter too?”
