Khloe Kardashian in race row after sharing black woman's emoji instead of white

mirror.co.uk:

Khloe Kardashian has come under fire for using emojis that depict a black woman. The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, 36, tweeted a string of the woman doing a face palm emojis earlier this week.

But instead of using the emoji that matched her own skin colour as a white woman, she used one representing a black woman. And she was then hit by a huge backlash on Twitter, with many users reminding her "you are white" and telling her to use a more appropriate emoji.

One tweeted the same emojis but using a white woman instead as if to correct her. "[Collective black disapproval]," another Twitter user posted.

A third said: "White people gotta stop using lightskin emojis just because of a tan." "Who's gonna tell Khloe tho..." another wrote.
