She finally addressed all the conversation about her ethnicity
People in America have a hard time with the whole "coloured" thing in South Africa that she reps for so many reasons
One being "colored" automatically brings the civil rights era / racism to minds of black Americans
It's safe to say we collectively feel no self-respecting black person will call themselves "colored".
But "coloured" has nothing to do with that in South Africa . It's literally the name of a group of people in SA who are of combined African, East Asian, Indian, and European ancestry.
And second reason being some people have an issue with her identifying as "coloured", as it unavoidably points to her multi-racial ancestry ("girl u just black!")
, while others are pushing her out of blackness... saying she's not and shouldn't be considered Black.
Looks like she's just setting the record straight in this interview
ultimately ... She's whatever she identifies as.
