Yay! They made up another way for you to be racist and for them to be offended.
The Slow Factory Foundation recently issued a waning about digital blackface following Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's interview with Oprah Winfrey
Non-profit defined digital blackface as an online phenomenon where white and non-black people share GIFs and photos of black people to express emotion
The organization stated that these memes perpetuate 'negative stereotypes' about black people and are reminiscent of minstrel shows
Idea of digital blackface has been around for years, but the term was popularized by writer Lauren Michele Jackson in her 2017 Teen Vogue essay
The Slow Factory Foundation said people shouldn't be sharing Oprah reaction memes just because they are popular, prompting mixed reactions
Some praised the organization for educating others about digital blackface, while others felt it was going too far and is actually a form of black erasure

You rang?
They've been grousing about this for years. This is how stupid and segregationist these Karens are.

Some might get the idea that they just want to shut down criticism and ridicule of the morons.

Don't post Oprah memes if you are not black . . .
But I thought it was OK since she's these gestures show she's really a double white supremicist?

Uh-oh.
I told one of my Army buddies that he was the blackest man in the galaxy (90s film reference), and he responded that I was "the whitest of the whitest white men."
