A few comments on her Instagram read, "I know I’m not the only black girl disturbed by this," and, "You serving black face tea, honey." Another person on Twitter commented, adding context
Jenner has been accused of blackfishing, a term used for a white person accused of trying to look black or mixed-race on social media.

It's not the first time the 22-year-old has been accused of appropriating black culture. Earlier this year, she was called out when she shared a photo of herself from an old photoshoot wearing her platinum blonde hair in protective twists. She then quickly deleted the photo after backlash ensued.
