Let’s learn from lilireinhart's 'tone-deaf' BreonnaTaylor Instagram post & apology.
On social media, influencers and celebrities are increasingly using their posts to demand justice for Breonna Taylor. Unfortunately, some of those posts miss the mark—much like Lili Reinhart’s ‘tone-deaf’ Breonna Taylor Instagram post. The Riverdale actress has since apologized for her post, which featured a photo of herself topless and referencing Breonna Taylor’s in her caption. Yes, at the same time.
Other social media users have been quick to point out the meme-ification of Breonna’s death in posts like these, as they fail to fully center her life and story. “Breonna Taylor’s murder is not a joke. It’s not a meme. It’s not meant for your get clear skin tweet to go viral,” wrote Twitter user @itsny01_. “She was a real Black woman who was murdered in her own home. Jonathan Mattingly, Brett Hankison and Myles Cosgrove are the cops who murdered her not just some cops.
