Trump admin's controversial Black History Month event sparks backlash

The Trump administration's Black History Month celebration has ruffled feathers, receiving criticism for its guest list.

Set to take place at the White House on February 20, the event has stirred a heated debate on social media, with many condemning the invitation of several prominent Black figures amidst Trump's crackdown on DEI initiatives.

Rumor has it that artists like Rod Wave, Boosie Badazz, and Kodak Black are expected to attend the ceremony, drawing ire from fans who had previously lambasted stars for performing at inauguration events.

As the controversy unfolds, questions are raised about the integrity of the event, with some labeling it as "The Coon Conference" and calling out attendees for seeking pardons from Trump in the past.

Critics also highlighted Trump's dismantling of DEI efforts, which has impacted the ability of institutions to honor Black History Month.

Notable attendees are rumored to include Alice Johnson, Alveda King, and Herschel Walker, though no public confirmations have been made regarding the guest list.

The commotion comes in the wake of Trump's bold social media declaration, proclaiming himself as "king" and sparking further discussion and debate online.
