House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and a number of her congressional colleagues gathered to kneel on Monday for the time they say a police officer had his knee on the neck of George Floyd.
However, the photo op did not quite go as planned.
In complete disagreement with the Speaker of the House, Obianuju Ekeocha who is from Africa was not pleased with the democrats kneeling display
Pelosi, Schumer, and others coordinated with the Congressional Black Caucus to don what the media might generically describe as ‘Traditional African Garb' in a supposed show of solidarity with BLM … something-something racism. And George Floyd.
There's just one problem with that publicity stunt. Ok, more than one, but from the perspective of a wonderful lady from Africa, she has one objection to raise.
Obianuju does not appreciate African culture being used as empty tokenism in which to wrap Democrat's political agendas.
She is a Nigerian, and respects the unique cultural identity of Ghana far too much to casually don that culturally-loaded fabric.
