If you thought Kanye’s bizarre rant and unorthodox album were worth multiple Think Pieces, Kim’s new braided ‘do at the 2018 MTV Movie Awards is worth a book on appropriation. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Kardashian/Jenner sisters spend thousands of dollars trying to emulate Black Women, all while never acknowledging our influence and impact on every race — then them rocking cornrows wouldn’t be such a huge deal. Like trying to rebrand them as boxer braids and claim that Bo Derek, a White woman, started it. But no shade to Bo! She knows the truth: Unfortunately, this wasn’t the first, and this won’t be the last time a White celeb cash cropped off our cornrows — put your scarecrows up: Hit the flip for more ridiculousness. via GIPHY
