Nicki Minaj performed for Day 2 of the IHeartRadio Festival wearing a peculiar pink “chicken wing” chain. As an African American woman I am aware of certain black stereotypes such as “black people love chicken,” and “all black women wear weaves.”

While I’m positive eating the certain poultry couldn’t be that evil, is wearing a plastic piece of chicken around your neck satire or ignorance?
