vitriolkisses 1,952 Posted February 27, 2022 She’s been very outspoken about her support for BLM for years now/raising awareness to provide resources for the Navajo Nation. The Blame Myself video really does not hold up though, aside from the controversy, it’s just bad. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigspender 8,368 Posted February 27, 2022 i want to defend her but i literally can’t……. i can’t believe she wore that……. i’m also confused because she’s literally native american??? it has the be ignorance……. and she was pretty outspoken when it came to the blm movement in 2020 so i’m obviously assuming that she doesn’t support a confederacy or blue lives matter anymore. + these pics look like they were taken in like 2013? 23 minutes ago, Surf Noir said: when people say "all lives matter" it's usually to deflect from the meaning/importance of the "black lives matter" movement & the phrase itself agreed, but given the screenshot it looks like this was a long ass time ago, and it seems she was implying that the person she posted’s life mattered so i don’t see any i’ll intent but that’s just me 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vitriolkisses 1,952 Posted February 27, 2022 Judging by the hair, she must’ve been in her teens there. It is still bad she didn’t notice at the time of course but I’m assuming she came to her senses because we’ve never seen that confederacy patch ever again + she’s been vocal about support for social movements since then. The “X” patch on the jacket is a symbol of Malcolm X and the black American flag means the opposite of the “surrender” white flag, it’s not the Blue Lives Matter flag. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EXODUS 9,914 Posted February 27, 2022 Every year something appears that makes her fans drag her. But this racist stuff is just a whole new level. I wouldn't be surprised if she gets canceled now. 1 Quote Hikaru Utada • BANKS • Rina Sawayama • Aly & AJ • MARINA • Björk • Kate Bush • Marion Ravn • Carly Rae Jepsen • Hilary Duff • Charli XCX • The Cardigans • Mitski • Phoebe Bridgers • Allie X • Caroline Polachek • Meg & Dia • Dia Frampton • Olivia Lufkin • Poppy • Grimes • Melanie Martinez • Lana Del Rey • Bat for Lashes • Ayumi Hamasaki • Paramore • Hayley Williams • Evanescence/Amy Lee • ACO • LIGHTS • Alexz Johnson • Avril Lavigne • Florrie • Flyleaf/Lacey Sturm • Tove Lo • Sky Ferreira • HANA • Daine • Foxes • CHVRCHES • Lorde Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blameitonme 15,673 Posted February 27, 2022 why the hell is she wearing that jacket the only reason i can think of is that she didn’t see the patches and a stylist/photographer threw it on her for a photo 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Desert lamp 1,789 Posted February 27, 2022 Also I think there was a rumor that the reason why Sky put ALM in that Insta post was because people forced her to in comments or something like that 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
details 17,164 Posted February 27, 2022 can't yall drag her for using a jacket or whatever centuries ago after she releases the album? i'm not looking forward to another covers ep situation 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
99tears 967 Posted February 27, 2022 Good Lord give this woman a break!! She’s clearly not racist. The girl is half Brazilian half Native American and her brother is black! The jacket was most definitely ignorance on her part, in her teens she probably had no idea what it represented / it was some vintage piece someone have her. Also, the BLM post I seem to remember a lot of people posting all lives matter before realising the racist implications and she definitely didn’t mean it in that context / people bullied her in comments to change it. She can’t win! 19 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was in late 2010s and I almost bought it not knowing the meaning. Damn that aged badly. As for the jacket, i feel like it wasn't even hers and she just took a photo with it. Maybe she ironically showed . She's more likely to be sjw than a racist, let's be real. 5 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHE HAS NO IDEA. + that hair equals a VERY young Ferreira that could've been much more easily manipulated, considering the circumstances of her early contracts, style-forcing, trying to make her an electro-pop pretty face. I just find all of these accusations ridiculous. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s really not that serious to be creating hypotheticals about her being manipulated to wearing the jacket. Also, you can be indigenous and racist and have black family members and be racist. I’m not saying she’s racist, but it’s not mutually exclusive. Your proximity to POC doesn’t mean you can’t be racist. Also, people are allowed to be disappointed when they see things like that. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And being native and brazilian doesn't mean you can't be racist, the President of Brazil is a literal racist, and as a brazilian i can say, since he got elected lots of racist people are getting brave and have no shame to be racist, because they know nothing will really happen to them... 6 Quote Janelle Monáe • Sky Ferreira • Grace Jones • Spellling • FKA twigs • Kate Bush • Kylie Minogue • Charli XCX • Carly Rae Jepsen • LOOΠ∆ • Red Velvet • Janet Jackson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
