Tyra isn't black yet.
They have an unnatural and ahistorical interpretation of race, and ignorance about SA's racial caste system will not change that.
K?
You can still like this song.

With all due respect, this is exactly what black Americans are saying about Tyra.
And instead of calling her a person of color, we were told that she was black and “centered on herself and monopolized black people.” So which one is it? https://t.co/Snaa45s6Zy
