Khloé Kardashian Stand Tall With the Black Community By Using Her 'Privilege'
Khloé Kardashian raises her voice to fight against racism and vows to utilize her privileges to the fullest to help the Black Community. It seems Khloe isn't going to stay silent anymore. The Kardashian Konfidential author went on social media earlier this week to pay respect to George Floyd.
While adding light on Floyd's death, she also took the opportunity to address the racism in the United States. Khloé says that no matter how many times she had addressed the issue of racism, all words were either no enough or felt empty but isn't ready to sit quietly.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star says how disgusted and heartbroken she is with Floyd's murder on her Instagram. Such incidents have been seen many times in the past where Black people are discriminated, victimized, and murdered just because of their skin color. Yet, they tend to show the resilient like a superhuman facing the constant adversity.
"It is incomprehensible to me that it's 2020 and people continue to restrict, stereotype, damage and oppress people of color, and that racism is a constant reality," the 35-year-old said. It merely breaks the Unbreakable Joy founder's heart to notice that parents are teaching their kids how not to get killed.
Khloé further says about praying for love, equality for everyone, and understanding. She hopes that if everyone comes together, then we can help Floyd and his family to get justice alongside every American black person who got mistreated, murdered, ignored, or abused.
The Kocktails with Khloé host acknowledges the fact that she is more privileged compared to others; hence she vowed to do best she can to fight for Floyd. She promises that Floyd's name will never be forgotten, and she will fearlessly stand against discrimination louder than before. In the closing statement, she wrote: "MUST" and "DO" in CAPS to emphasize her emotions.
Apart from Khloé, many celebrities are coming forward to speak up and supporting the Black Community after Floyd's death, which happened on Monday when a white police offer in Minneapolis kneeled his neck and refused to take his knee off until Floyd died.
Sadly, there were three more officers present when this incident took place, and they did NOTHING! Vanessa Bryant, Meghan Trainor, John Boyega, Harry Styles, Nicki Minaj, Jay Z, Behati Prinsloo, Miley Cyrus, Hugh Jackman, and other famous faces are speaking against racism.
