An African American model has spoken out about her refusal to wear bizarre, ‘racist’ accessories – including ‘monkey ears’ and large synthetic lips – during a Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) runway show.

I was literally shaking. I could not control my emotions. My whole body was shaking. I have never felt like that in my life. People of color are struggling too much in 2020 for the promoters not to have vetted and cleared accessories for the shows.

She should not wear monkey lips and ears...










...because it is stupid. Nobody should wear monkey lips and ears. What the f*ck are people thinking...that monkey lips and ears are the new fashion trend?

Why is it okay to caricature “white people” as apes and monkeys but as soon as a “person of color” is even hinted at looking anything simian it’s the worst thing ever?








Are robots racist?

By struggling does she mean struggling to survive without being murdered by fellow blacks?

Do people actually wear this “fashion” out in public aside from these freak show gatherings ?

Racist? Ok maybe I guess.

Bizarre? Most definitely.

If she doesn't feel like wearing what the designers are telling her then she doesn't have to. She also doesn't have to do that line of work or get paid either.

it makes me uncomfortable that people leap to the conclusion that monkeys and apes are racist symbols....seems racist to leap to that same conclusion
