The Kardashians and their continual re-appropriation of black culture and features has blown up the twittersphere quite often.

This time Khloe Kardashian has decided that she is a “Bantu Babe”, clearly having no idea what Bantu means, and posted a picture of her sporting Bantu Knots.

The picture was first posted on Twitter before she deleted it and posted a second picture with the caption: ‘I like this one better.’

However, folks were quick to ask why she couldn’t ‘be creative and innovate’ her hair. ‘Do some Armenian hairstyles to your head,’ wrote an Instagram user.
