“The ash was really serious. She needs some work,” she said of the blushes.
While many users could relate to Golloria and thanked her for championing inclusivity, the video sadly sparked a heap of racist discourse
Praising the “redemption” of Rhode’s products, Golloria told her followers, “This is why you advocate for yourself.”
“your voice can elicit change. wonderfully done, thank you for listening to black women!” she captioned her video.
