What?!

As a joke, a number of black TikTokers declared white people with red hair count as black now and then didn't add any follow up. Honestly a pretty funny trend, and I guess this article is saying it brought up an interesting discussion.

Normally discussions about race don't spark unity, which is why (I guess) op found this news uplifting.

I have yet to see anything good that comes out of TikTok

It's a tiktok trend, that means it will last 1 month at best, then people will move on to another trend and forgetting this one ever existed.
