Azealia Banks boycotts Dolce & Gabbana Spring Collection 2013 for racism

Azealia Banks says she is boycotting Dolce and Gabbana for the corny, racist imagery in their spring 2013 collection

Songstress Azealia Banks tweeted that she is ”definitely boycotting” Dolce & Gabbana for the “corny, racist” imagery in their spring 2013 collection.

The Italian fashion house raised some eyebrows when they sent an army of all-white models down the runway donning controversial earrings featuring dark-skinned women wearing burlap dresses and plantation-era cornucopias.

“Whoever designed that racist ass Dolce and Gabanna collection needs a swift kick in the mouth and a big d***up the ass,” she tweeted on Saturday.

“I really hate when people do corny, racist things then try to justify it as <<art. It’s all just really unnecessary. the clothes in the collection were fine without all the “black mammie>> imagery” she added.

Dolce & Gabbana representatives said that the imagery used is said to be inspired by their Sicilian roots.
