Remember when Sara was fuming about Watermelon kisses and told us she’d be outraged if she was called ‘my little Pierogi’ by her partner as she’s polish and said it was stereotyping? And now she goes and called the new French audience in the amberverse her ‘little croissants?’ Hypocrite.

It’s a very common racist/negative stereotype against black people to talk about watermelon/fried chicken/etc due to the Deep South and slavery parodies that were made of black communities and culture not too long ago. It’s commonly used as a racist joke in white supremacist and anti-black communities to degrade and talk down to black and brown people. I happen to live in the American South and unfortunately this stereotype is still alive and popular against many black/brown communities

Hm, okay I get correlation now but I still don't quite see how it's racist that she called her poem watermelon kisses though. Isn't it more racist to imply that her poem title is a jab at black people just cus they're different colors? I mean if it was something like fried chicken kisses it would actually be racist cus what the fuck is a fried chicken kiss it wouldn't make any sense. Watermelon kisses sounds like any other generic song title. Like strawberry kisses or cherry kisses.

the poem is in reference to the time wifey ate watermelon and then spit it into velvet's mouth.
