Olivia Jade appears on "Red Table Talk"

[babarsuhail]

At the beginning of the episode, Jada revealed that Olivia had called her and "wanted to come to our table." She added that her mother Adrienne and daughter Willow "all had very different feelings about it."

"I fought it tooth and nail," Adrienne admits. "I just found it really ironic that she chose three Black women to reach out to for her

"I fought it tooth and nail," Adrienne admits. "I just found it really ironic that she chose three Black women to reach out to for her redemption story. I feel like here we are, [a] white woman coming to Black women for support when we don't get the same from them. Her being here is the epitome of white privilege to me."

Speak on it. Jada can kiss my ass for allowing this shit.

MTE I loved her content but she's always been out of touch. The whole "volunteer" thing sounded like a cap too and this was just media cleanup of her image. She's still young and she can still come above this but this wasn't the move. I can empathize with how humiliating this was for her. But I can't pity her for what had happened to her and her family, they got a slap on their wrist when parents who just change their address so their kids can go to school in a better district are put to jail? Yeah... that shit sucks and it's embarrassing but... sis needs a reality check.

Holy shit, is that for real? I had no idea it was that serious in the US

Yes, really it's to perpetuate racist bullshit, but idk what they use as the "official" reason for it being illegal. Fraud, I guess

I'm shocked it's that big of an issue, and it makes this whole Olivia situation even more infuriating.
