Roman Abramovich’s Girlfriend Under Fire For Sitting On A Black Girl On MLK Day

Dasha Zhukova, the girlfriend of Russian business tycoon Roman Abramovich, has come under fire for a fashion editorial which was unveiled on Martin Luther King’s Day.



MLK Day is a  federal American holiday set aside to celebrate the legend. It was yesterday Monday 20th January 2014.

In the photo for the online magazine – Buro 24/7, Dasha who is also the editor-in-chief of Garage Magazine, is seen sitting on a half unclad black woman.

The image was also posted on Instagram, but later deleted and posted again with the image of the black woman cropped out.



Although a white version of the chair is also available, a lot of people on Twitter erupted with allegations that it was racist act and derogatory that it was posted on Martin Luther King’s Day.
