Megan Thee Stallion celebrated the New Year at a pajama party thrown by power couple Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles-Carter.
A photo the rapper posted of Beyonce and her 7-year-old daughter sparked Black Twitter’s first dragging of 2020.
The drama began when Vanity Fair writer K. Austin Collins, who is Black, cracked a joke about Blue Ivy’s looks.
Then Harper’s Bazaar magazine writer Violet Lucca compared the child to socialite Kylie Jenner, who underwent extensive facial surgery as a teenager.
Author and woman’s rights activist Mikki Kendall took offense at the senseless attack on a child and went IN on both journalists.
Lucca, who is white, offered a half-hearted apology, saying she was busy cleaning her apartment when Black Twitter came for her.
Kendall responded by reminding Lucca that journalists should remain unbiased, and that what she wrote “was rooted in racist narratives about Black girls & their features…”
Collins also apologized, calling his tweet a “bad joke.”
Question: What do you think? Should the journalists’ comments be protected speech?
