Gilbert Arenas recently seemed to have an awakening about Black beauty that was sparked by the ongoing protests for racial equality, and it caused him to issue an apology to Lupita Nyong’o.

“When u say African features Black then you have #1 Lupita Nyong’o and she’s cute when the lights are off.

“Sorry but Ewww so the Black beautiful women u try to boost up is technically light skinned or brown skinned.”

“I was trying to defend all shades of Black but that’s what the post was also doing…I ended up pulling a COON moment…sorry all shades of Black women no need to forgive me Im pretty sure I’ll say some f——d up s–t probably in two weeks ??

And as for lupita she ain’t cute to me sorry…just like I’m not cute to 95% of u…”

Under the comments of Arenas’s recent apology to Nyong’o, some didn’t believe that he was sincere, while another person said that she didn’t care if he apologized or not.
