Whats the differenced between these two shoes?
One is a reach and the other is super blatant. **** Katy Perry.

The most glaring is that one is a face and one is a stripe.
If only the stripe was red do you think that would have been more "acceptable" ?

in conjunction in so far as its not a black designer to say "well shucks a black person put her in that jacket so who can complain?"
now you tell me the jackets retailed i bet beyonce got a dollar in her pocket for wearing it and thus that jacket must have escaped the scrunity that gucci didnt

One is a Nike Air Jordan I basketball shoe. The other is a slip on. One is designed by Nike the other was designed by Katy Perry's brand. The Nikes have shoe laces, the slip on does not. The Nikes have a thick cream colored midsole, the slip ons don't even have a midsole. One has a big face with blue eyes, a gold nose and big red lips. The other doesn't. I think that about covers it, as I don't know prices and materials.

The issue would be, it's harder to make the case that a white designer created a blackface themed jacket with pure intentions.

as it should be
why shouldnt a white designer face scrutiny over such a historically controversial design?

So you understand the issue, you just don't apply it to this situation?

its not i dont apply it
its beyonce didnt apply it
shes wearing the jacket she requested or approved the design
so if its ok with her who am i to say why shes wearing it or what it means
but again shes black she can do that
a white person in that jacket given the history of minstrelsy is an insult

So basically, you give Beyoncé the benefit of the doubt that it's positive until proven otherwise

beyonce rocking this wouldnt make it innocuous thou..so fail

when did inconspicuousness matter when wearing a jacket with sambo on it?
no the point you were trying to make is that clothes dont matter depending on whos wearing them and thats false
so fail for your own logic failing you and that poor rebuttal

unless beyonce hates her race and i dont know about it?
this is not a black people shouldnt do it nobody should do it kind of thing
the same way ppl tried to put a positive spin on the n word its possible to want to make a positive light of blackface/minstrelsy IF youre black
but in putting it on jackets etc it could be way of not letting it be forgotten outside of museums and history books etc
and even that you cant trust when they wanna turn the slave trade into the triangle trade of goods and services smh

I was gonna clarify it for him but I'm just waking up. I think he knew what we meantYou CAN NOT BE THIS DENSE
You actually thought me posting the designer was in CONJUNCTION with your "she's black" comment
Fam forreal...what is wrong with you?

if Gucci is catching flak for designing the blackface sweater, do you think the DESIGNER of the Beyonce garment should catch flak as well?

Exactly. Why haven't these black celebrities created their own luxury lines instead of still flexing Italian/french brands?

I was gonna clarify it for him but I'm just waking up. I think he knew what we meant
that depends
did he do the design independent just randomly making a blackface coat?
or did beyonce have something to do with it? as in requesting or approving of it?
did it go on sale before she wore it or after?
did proceeds go to charity?
