U.S. Official Calls On Lizzo To Help Teach ‘#BlackGirlMagic’ To Afghan Women Subjugated By The Taliban
Once again, this author is forced to clarify to The Daily Wire audience that they are not reading The Babylon Bee.
On Wednesday, the United States Chargé d’Affaires Karen B. Decker posed what might be the greatest question of our time, and the response to it could hold the answer to peace in the Middle East.
“Are Afghans familiar with #BlackGirlMagic and the movement it inspired?” the woman who “specializes in conflict resolution and crisis management” in Afghanistan on behalf of the State Department tweeted. “Do Afghan girls need a similar movement? What about Afghan Women? Teach me, ready to learn. @Beyonce @lizzo @ReginaKing.”
The obvious answer is that, no, Afghans are not familiar with “#BlackGirlMagic.” Most people probably are not. A cursory glance shows that the hashtag was popularized in 2016 as part of a global effort to promote positivity amongst black females.
“We’re using it to celebrate ourselves because historically black women haven’t had the type of support that other groups have,” Cashawn Thompson, a caregiver from Washington, D.C., told the BBC at the time. “Black Girl Magic tries to counteract the negativity that we sometimes hold within ourselves and is sometimes placed on us by the outside world.”
What The Actual Fuk Are these people thinking ..... Af'gans ... Black Girl Magic Is there ANY comprehension of what makes up Central Asia ?
Video appears to show gang-rape of Afghan woman in a Taliban jail
The woman in the video – recorded on a phone by one of the armed men – tries to cover her face with her hands. One of the men pushes her hard when she hesitates as he gives her orders.
At one point she is told, “You’ve been fuc ked by Americans all these years and now it’s our turn.”
The woman has said that she was arrested for taking part in a public protest against the Taliban and was raped while being held in detention in a Taliban prison. She has since fled Afghanistan. She said that after she spoke out against the Taliban in exile, she was sent the video and told that if she continued to criticise the regime the video would be sent to her family and released on social media.
“If you continue saying anything bad against the Islamic Emirate, we will publish your video,” she said she was told.
She believes that the attack was deliberately recorded to be used to silence and shame her. The person filming the assault captures her standing naked with her face visible and she is identifiable during the attacks.
Last week the Guardian published accounts of teenage girls and young women who said that they were sexually assaulted and beaten after being detained under Afghanistan’s draconian hijab laws.
