Default Florence + The Machine accused of racism

Quote:
The video for Florence And The Machine’s new single ‘No Light, No Light’ is at the centre of a race row after its makers were accused of espousing ‘white supremacist’ views.

A piece entitled ‘White Supremacy all dressed up in a pop video is still White Supremacy’, posted on Racialicious.com, has suggested that the video is packed full of “racist imagery”.

Directed by Icelandic duo Arni & Kinski, the video sees Florence Welch pursued by a man in black body paint, practising ‘voodoo’. Racialicious writes that the video is guilty of “glorifying the white female central character as representing goodness, all while vilifying the evil dark skinned heathen Other".
