(Jamaica Observer) Dancehall artiste Spice made it clear that she is ‘not playing [the] victim’ as she took to Instagram Live on Tuesday to address the incident in which her former Love & Hip Hop Atlanta co-star, Erica Mena, referred to her as a ‘monkey.
During her address, Spice questioned whether it’s now acceptable to endure racism when someone is angered.
Spice emphasised that she wasn’t playing the victim but taking full accountability for the situation.
“…I’m not playing victim, and I’m taking full accountability because you guys said I experienced the racism because I triggered her,” Spice said.
She highlighted her previous activism against colourism and shared that she painted her face white in 2018 as a form of protest to shed light on the issue of colourism within the black community.
