Jimmy Fallon being someone who claims to love black culture having some white influencer doing tiktok dances that black creators made is wack on so many levels https://t.co/8NOd0ZEs4E

So you're saying that instead of stressing over my dissertation, I could have been mediocre, get famous from doing other people's dances (and not give them credit), make millions, and go on Jimmy Fallon?? What's the point? https://t.co/zTUcw2Q0tQ

I think Black creators should just stop creating content for like a good 6 months and just observe what these people come up with https://t.co/xJiXRnUdcX
