The singer’s daughter was born less than 5 days ago and has already been the target of criticism on social media and the reason is revolting; find out why!
Last Sunday, the 13th, the singer Iza celebrated the arrival of her first daughter,Nala, fruit of her relationship with the football playerYuri Lima. In a loving and symbolic gesture, Iza shared on social media an image of the newborn’s hand, accompanied by an emotional quote from the song “Anunciação”, by the artist Alceu Valença: “That you would come on a Sunday morning, I announced to you in the cathedral bells”.
However, the birth of Nala was not immune to prejudiced reactions on the internet. Racist comments quickly emerged on social media, highlighting the color of the child’s skin. One user wrote: “Don’t palm it. The daughter of Iza was born white.”
The term “palmitar” is used in a pejorative way to describe black people who have romantic relationships with white individuals.
Criticism went further in some cases, revealing an even more aggressive. “White? We don’t want it,” expressed one internet user.
Criticisms in the comments
Another commented on the personal and professional trajectory of Iza: “THE Iza palmed, took the white man’s horn, dubbed King Lion, baptized his daughter Nala and, even though she is a black feminist symbol, she will spend the rest of her life loving her white daughter, of course.”
On the other hand, several users expressed their singer’s defense and against prejudiced statements. An internet user brought to the discussion a historical reflection on racism:
“Racism was a term created to name what Hitler he did with the Jews, who were white… it’s a very valuable piece of historical information, which many people don’t know, but which can irritate people who love to be gratuitously racist, with the idea that just because they’re white, they can.”
