NO Ma'am Mrs. Knowles Carter!!
Singer Beyonce Knowles Carter opts to don blackface make-up in a tribute to Nigerian Legend, Fela Kuti’s dancers for French Magazine L’Officiel.
It is quite disheartening that Beyonce, a woman of African descent felt it necessary to undertake this fashion shoot in such a manner in order to represent fellow African women.
This could have been a spectacular spread had the Grammy award winning artist used her clout and position in the world entertainment industry to simply tell the powers that be at L’Officiel where to get off.
There were some shots of the singer without the offensive Blackface make-up, however these were overshadowed.
As an African American woman, Beyonce of all people should have been well aware of the history of this racist iconography and what it represented to African descended people in the Diaspora.
