Madonna accused of racism cuz of altered Instagram pics of Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela

[Prince.Skeletor]

Madonna is defending herself against criticism after she posted Instagram photos of Martin Luther King Jr. and Nelson Mandela that were altered to look like her own image on her new album.
Madonna's cover for the album Rebel Heart is a closeup of her face with black string on it. Her social media posts show the faces of King and Mandela doctored to make it appear as though they have similar string on their faces.
Some consider the posts offensive.
In a statement released late Friday night, Madonna said she was not comparing herself to them but acknowledging that they were rebels.

White people are out of control . I can kinda understand the concept but damn

Imagine if a rapper like Ye decided to do this with America's sweethearts like Ronald Regan, John F Kennedy, Ab Lincoln

exactly ain't nothing revolutionary about madonna she glorifies all the wrong things.

also a good point
because it highlights the fact that she had to trivialize them in order to be able to compare herself with them
if she calls them a rebel she can call herself one too, a rebel.. big deal
any kid in high school can just put on a bandana at school and call himself a rebel
but if you call them revolutionaries then you can't call yourself one

She basically trivialized the immense sacrifices that these people made during the course of their lives.
