@guardian: Aya Nakamura is known for her unique French style influenced by Afrobeats and Caribbean zouk … and making history last year when her three Paris gigs sold out in 15 minutes. This hasn’t stopped France’s far-right politicians expressing outrage over the possibility that she could sing at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony. “France is unwilling to accord people of colour the status they deserve. The Nakamura controversy confirms just how deeply entrenched that refusal really is,” says Rokhaya Diallo. Diallo is a French columnist for The Guardian and interviewed Nakamura last year for GQ. In this video we asked her about the backlash against the pop star and what it tells us about France’s problem with racism - for even more on this story, click the link in bio for @rokhayadiallo’s full piece. #AyaNakamura #France #Olympics #Paris #Music

Why would a black woman want to perform for France anyways? The whole world knows how racist and Islamophobic France is so she would just be a puppet they use to wash their worldwide image
