The Internet is Seriously Mad at Kendall Jenner for Wearing Cornrows
Maybe you can help me out. What is it called again when someone makes the same mistakes over and over expecting different results? Oh, right, insanity. That’s it!
And "insane" is the only word to describe yet another story about a Kardashian-Jenner member being dragged for alleged cultural appropriation. In the latest, the internet is livid after videos began surfacing this week of Kendall Jenner wearing cornrows while on vacation with Hailey Baldwin and Justine Skye in Jamaica, Cosmopolitan reports. She was also seen in photos with Kylie Jenner and on her younger sister's Instagram Story rocking the same 'do.
As the accusations of culture appropriation concerning America’s most-watched family continue to pile up, the aggressiveness of followers increases. People are throwing some intense criticism at Kendall, so much so, I don’t know if this girl will ever want to braid her hair again.
As Cosmopolitan reports, one user wrote on Twitter, “hope kendall jenner’s hair falls out from those ugly a*s braids.” Another posted, “i’m EXHAUSTED of white people constantly appropriating black culture and wearing hairstyles that we are always ridiculed/ chastised for having and just doing it because they want to ‘look different’ or ‘stand out.’”
And one post got right to the heart of the issue, writing, “she gets to wear this and she’ll be called fashionable and unique but the second a black woman wears this they’re called ghetto and 'unprofessional.' make it make sense.”
Kendall has not yet commented on the issue.
