@rick_speaks: People not liking the oak Bluffs collection from Ralph Lauren…#oakbluffs #ralphlauren #BlackTikTok #blackpeople #blackcommunity #blackwomen #BlackHistory #blackgirlmagic #blackwomenoftiktok #fyp #viral #relatable
This is your first take that I disagree with. I think the issue is that many black people don’t want to be sold classist exclusion. Martha’s Vineyard is a personification of intra-racial classist exclusion, there’s nothing wrong with not wanting to buy into that.

Even if one was raised in poverty, why do you want to stay there?!?

it's a disconnect between black elite and poor blacks. we need to understand each other. we are. ot all the same. black people also forget that we all have different experiences

Black does not equate to struggle. We gotta stop being our own worst enemy.

It’s scares me how accustomed some people are with poverty. Strugglehood should not be comfortable at all. 😭

I'm sitting over here crying bc all of my life I've felt connected to Ralph Lauren, I've asked people around me to go to Polo matches with me, experience Nascar and go to Martha's Vineyard, they'd call me bourgeois or say "that's a white person's sport/hobby." Gen Z is SO BLESSED to have social media so they can SEE BLACK EXCELLENCE WITH THEIR OWN EYES, previous generations didn't

My black experience is not one of struggle. My parents didn’t do everything right but I never had to want for nothing. We went to Disneyland, Catalina Island & even horse back riding as kids. Not all black people are from the hood or from hard times.

If you came up in poverty we was giving examples like the Cosby show and Fresh Prince to show us Black Excellence exists and we all don't come from poverty. If these people exists where the hell do you think they would vacation. Hell Carlton dressed like this every episode.

we can't take all of our people with us. some of them are gonna have to be left behind. Dr Umar. if buddy wants to rationalize poverty as the only "real" upbringing for blk folks, then that's on them. I want to visit oak bluffs.

As a blk man, I’m tired of race. I’m tired of being “too black” or “too white”. It’s an experience that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy

Ralph Lauren is literally the quentin tarantino of fashion. He takes heavy influence from smaller curators , designers, and stylists that exhibit different aspects of americana. He’s one of our goats and has shouted out the black legends that influenced him.
