tl;dr: Actress Kemper won a beauty pageant in 1999. Turns out the beauty pageant was segregated until 1979. Kemper is now horrified she participated in the pageant cuz racism and shite

On Monday afternoon, Kemper released a statement on Instagram apologizing for her participation in the pageant, which is a long-held tradition in her hometown St. Louis. The pageant was founded in 1878 by a Confederate Army officer and his brother, and banned nonwhite people from participating until 1979. It also notably has used imagery that many social media users have compared to symbols and paraphernalia of the KKK.
In her statement, Kemper acknowledged that "the century-old organization that hosted the debutante ball had an unquestionably racist, sexist, and elitist past." While Kemper says she wasn't aware of the Veiled Prophet Ball's organizational history when she participated in 1999, she wrote, "Ignorance is no excuse. I was old enough to have educated myself before getting involved.

Apologizing for lies makes me want to vomit on them

So participating in a beauty pageant that stopped segregating is now racist?

Yes in 1999 you should have been aware that 22 years later unhinged leftists would find more and more increasingly absurd things to become enraged about for 24 hour periods. Shame on you.

Just once I'd love to see a celebrity call one of these apology press conferences then proceed to tell everyone to eat shite and take their liberalism and shove it up their asses.

Meh, let the idiots and jello spines who are prone to do so grovel and beg for the mercy of the Twitter mob and Progressive Puritans.
At the end of the day, they will live with no respect gained or earned from any corner. Just out there twisting in the wind like the leaves they are.

Have snow self respect
Only apologize if you are actually a racist. I’m assuming this chick isn’t one. She doesn’t have to apologize to anyone
