People are not happy.
Kendall Jenner has been accused of cultural appropration after wearing a burqa. She was visiting Dubai at the time when she wore the clothing that is traditionally worn by Muslim women.
A friend shared a picture of her in the Burqa and people have been very quick to respond. The main reason for the outrage is that she used it for diguise while touring and also that people have been complimenting her for looking ‘cute’ and ‘cool’ for wearing it.
People are not happy and accusing the star of cultural appropriation.
CONGRATULATIONS kendall jenner for appropriating 3 cultures (bindis, dreads, burqa) AND STILL COUNTING!! thats qwhite a high score !!

How dare Kendall Jenner wear a burqa to hide from the paps when Muslim women around the world are being discriminated against for wearing it

.@KendallJenner don’t use my religion as an “undercover identity” especially in a climate where we are some of the most targeted people.
