Hi everyone! It's Lola from Lola's Life Lessons!
Kenya Moore of the real housewives of Atlanta has gotten herself into some trouble.
This is not her year. She's going through a divorce and now this on the march 21st episode
Kenya arrived at a Halloween party wearing a Native American costume. As soon as I saw this
my thoughts were pretty much backed up by Drew and Porsha's comments in their diary room exchange.
Drew Sedora said that the costume was super problematic and Porsha said I thought we weren't
doing that no more. The non-profit organization created and led by Native Americans stated on
Instagram that they were incredibly concerned that none of the producers or executives at
Bravo Comcast or NBC universal intervened. Here is the full statement on Instagram.
So I myself I'm thinking why would bravo even allow that episode. Why didn't they maybe edit
Kenya out? I don't know. So here's bravo's apology. They have since apologized.
Kenya has since apologized.
However, there has been some backlash on Twitter. Some of the fans are saying why wasn't Drew,
Monique or Porsha held to the same standard when they did the exact same thing.
Now if you're wondering why this is even an issue here in 2021. Well, that statement from the
illuminate native should have enlightened you but actually, this tweet really seems to sum it up.
We are not your costume! We are not your costume!
As for Kenya at first, she said on Twitter that she felt justified
in wearing the costume because she was celebrating her Native American culture
and now she is apologizing for celebrating that culture. I am assuming that Kenya has
educated herself about her Native American culture. Maybe she wasn't educated before.
That's about it guys. What are your thoughts on the situation? Let me know in the comment
