Miley Cyrus is already getting flak for her new album Younger Now. Kelechi Okafor, actress and dance instructor eviscerates the country singer with this thread. She accuses Miley of appropriating black culture and profiting from it.

Wow so she went from appropriating blackness and straight to an era where blacks were segregated from whites. What a cutie. https://t.co/kUNGRqdvfq

"tribal twerk"? Wow…
Why couldn't they call Miley's Mayo twerk? https://t.co/jkhAIZfTzf— Your Mom (@NieceyBoBC) August 19, 2017

I love this. This is the type of voice white supremacists target. Thank you for continuing to raise awareness.
