Jack Harlow wore a bonnet to a football game and now he is being accused of cultural appropriation.
His pictures popped up on the Louisville City Football Club Twitter and Instagram accounts posing with fans while wearing a bonnet to “protect his curls”.
Twitter users did not waste any time!
One user said “Yk i thought you was cool @jackharlow but this? oh i’m taking this as DISRESPECT. i need you to TAKE IT OFF.”
Another protested, “Yeah this was my POV too. obviously bonnets are for all people with curly hair but to wear it in public is a no for me.”
Can someone please explain to why Jack Harlow is 1. Out in public with a bonnet and 2. Wearing a bonnet?? Please pic.twitter.com/lhRi2NNAL0

Jack Harlow is abusing white privilege. It's cool when he wears a bonnet, but ghetto when black women wear them out in public.

The problem isn’t with him wearing the bonnet the issue is that it’s mad business and people making it seem like wearing a bonnet is unprofessional or ghetto yet you got Jack Harlow wearing it not all of sudden it’s “allowed” so nah give him the same treatment! TAKE IT OFF! https://t.co/wQBpo1zlgw

But there are those who think Jack’s bonnet is cute!
Y’all gone HATE me for saying this but I don’t mind Jack Harlow wearing a bonnet ???

and of course a post like this would not be complete without a little gaslighting
So let me get this straight.. Jack Harlow can’t wear a bonnet but black women can wear wigs, bone straight hair and blue contacts. Wear box braids and cornrows for your protective hairstyle then. Stop emulating white women
