Campbell says she believes the rule unfairly singles out African Americans. “The clips, the beads, that’s in our culture,” she says. “When they wrote the rules, they weren’t writing it for White people or other people, they were writing it for my people.”
Translation: it's more important for her to express her blackness than to compete.
