Porsha Williams of The Real Housewives of Atlanta responded after Kenya Moore accused her of using the current Black Lives Matter as a storyline. Williams has been on the front lines in Louisville, Kentucky demanding justice for the killing of Breonna Taylor. However, according to some fans and a fellow housewife, Porsha is only promoting her activism to have it featured in the next season of RHOA.
Williams is the granddaughter of Civil Rights Activist Hosea Williams, so her involvement with the Black Lives Matter movement should come as no surprise. She was recently arrested with a number of other prominent figures while at a peaceful protest for Breonna Taylor. Taylor was a 26-year old EMT who was at home with her boyfriend when police performed a no-knock warrant raid that resulted in her death. Taylor was shot eight times and died as a result of her injuries on March 13. Her family and loved ones came together to demand justice for her death. The movement has garnered nationwide support and has moved a number of celebrities to get involved.
Many have applauded Williams for supporting the movement through more than just social media posts. However, one fan recently accused her of trying to gain notoriety through her advocacy, something her arch-nemesis Kenya appeared to agree with. The drama started after Cynthia Bailey shared a photo with Porsha on Instagram. The caption for the adorable photo included a shoutout to Porsha's activism. "Super proud of all the work that Porsha has been doing on the front line for the #blm movement," Cynthia said in the picture's caption. In true RHOA nature, things turned shady after one user left a comment accusing Porsha of using her activism as a storyline. “Porsha is clout chasing,” the user wrote. “This girl is doing all this for show. Glad it is positive but trust it is for show.” Check out the post for yourself below:
Kenya decided to respond to the user by leaving the eyes emoji. The seemingly shady move appeared to reflect Kenya's agreeance with the user. However, once Williams caught wind of Kenya's shade, she issued a lengthy response that called Kenya out for not supporting fellow Black women. “You should be supporting me as a fellow black woman trying so hard to change this 🌎 and instead you’re the least supportive person ever," Williams replied. "If you’re going to spend time bringing awareness to anything, try something positive in life … oops I forgot misery loves company. I’m going to say extra prayers for you and all people on the wrong side of history,” she continued.
Instead of bowing out gracefully, Kenya quickly responded with more claims that Williams is only advocating for the Bravo cameras. “Over [eyes] really? I support you and I 💯 support the movement and will follow REAL leaders not storylines. So be REAL on and off camera. REAL change starts with YOU,” Kenya replied. The ladies are currently filming for season 13 of RHOA. Fans will have to wait until next year to see how all of the drama unfolds between the housewives.
