This morning, L’Oréal Paris ended its relationship with Munroe Bergdorf, the brand’s first trans model, after she made controversial remarks about racism among whites.
Bergdorf stated that the "success" of white people "is built on the backs, blood and death of people of color."
“Honestly I don’t have energy to talk about the racial violence of white people any more. Yes ALL white people,” Bergdorf, 30, reportedly wrote in a Facebook post that has since been removed.
“Because most of ya’ll don’t even realize or refuse to acknowledge that your existence, privilege and success as a race is built on the backs, blood and death of people of color. Your entire existence is drenched in racism…
On Friday, L’Oréal said Bergdorf’s comments were “at odds” with the company’s values and it was removing her from its current #YoursTruly campaign. “L’Oréal champions diversity. Comments by Munroe Bergdorf are at odds with our values and so we have decided to end our partnership with her.”
The London model and DJ later posted she had been quoted out of context, and that her comments were in response to the situation in Charlottesville: “When I stated that ’all white people are racist,’ I was addressing that fact that western society as a whole, is a system rooted in white supremacy—designed to benefit, prioritize and protect white people before anyone of any other race.”
Bergdorf, who was only announced as the face of the #YoursTruly campaign this week, has called for a boycott against L’Oréal.
“Sit still and smile in a beauty campaign ’championing diversity,” she wrote. “But don’t actually speak about the fact that lack of diversity and is due to racism. Or speak about the origins of racism. It’ll cost you your job.

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOEZ
So he claims that he was quoted out of context, and then goes on to state that his context is that all whites are racist and privileged--I don't get how the context is any different than what he originally said.
Must be a very unhappy person to always put blame on the color of your skin; and to always be judging others by the color of their skin.
“It puts the lotion on its skin, or it’s... RACIST!!!!”
There is no difference. This GUY spoke from his hateful heart both times around.
I read his continued hole-digging as well (drop the shovel!).
As best as I can make out, the “context” is that he posted right after Chalottesville and so for that reason alone he should be excused for having revealed himself to be a hateful, racist bigot.
To me, all he did was add “who has no ability to control his emotions” to the above list of personal failings.
Let’s not forget it was the dirty, low down, evil Barry Obama that put the gay, trans, hate-whites movement into hyper overdrive.
He ain’t no “she”. It is a cross-dressing homosexual.
For a black racist who hates whites, he sure likes to whiten his skin color.
Guy is right.
He can wear dresses and mutilate his penis but he’s still a dude and always will be.
Destroying the family unit and gender roles are part of the effort by globalists to undermine society and prevent breeding of Europeans.
[ Bergdorf stated that the “success” of white people “is built on the backs, blood and death of people of color.” ]
When you consider how many whites died during the civil war and the actual population of white slave holders in the south at slavery’s maximum ( 6% ) and the fact that the major inventors and industrialists from the industrial revolution DID NOT HAVE SLAVES...
That is the dumbest damned statement ever...
absolutely right
Pet peeve: Illiterates who think it’s “ya’ll” instead of “y’all”. And I’m a damn Yankee.

The fashion industry has developed a real love affair with this label in recent years. Seems the media is into it as well. I would submit the Democrats have bought into it lock stock and barrel.

Beat me to it. The recently unemployed model reflexively claimed “I’ve been quoted out of context” with no apparent understanding that the “clarification” to follow is actually the important part.
The London model...“Because most of ya’ll don’t even realize...
LOL - Don’t hear many brits talk that way
I was addressing that fact that western society as a whole, is a system rooted in white supremacy—designed to benefit, prioritize and protect white people before anyone of any other race.”
LOL its use of English improved vastly over the last 24 hours.
Ignorant filth like this sub-human error are what make life on Earth smell like boiling broccoli. To the pens with all of them!
LOL!
So you’re saying this guy was a plant?
So basically, they are black supremacists since they perceive that all whites are racist.
