A White Woman Threw a Lime at Solange at a Concert Because She Was Dancing

Solange has always been one to speak her mind and tell it like it is, and we love her for it. Last night, she was attending a Kraftwerk show in her family when four very rude white women yelled at her to sit down and threw something at her back. She quickly took the conversation to Twitter to express her disdain for the situation and how black people are often assessed in predominantly white spaces.

Of course, after her tweets, there were some people hopping in her mentions to further prove her point.

 

We have to give Solange props for keeping her cool, because situations like that can end badly. However, it’s sad that it’s often on the onus of black people to not react when treated with disrespect because we are primarily seen as the instigator, even when provoked or confronted.
