Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich's partner, Dasha Zhukova is under fire for posting a picture of herself sitting on a chair made to resemble a half-naked black woman, on Martin Luther King Day. A lot of people accused her of being a racist and insisted the picture was offensive.
FashionBombDaily.com editor Claire Sulmers was among the first to express her disbelief, claiming the photo's message was startlingly clear: 'White dominance and superiority, articulated in a seemingly serene yet overtly degrading way.'
Organizing for Women's Liberation also tweeted, 'This is incredibly racist,' after news of the unbelievable picture spread and a lot of women organisations have condemned the act. She has since taken the picture down. Wonder why she did at first.
