Racist? Vogue Italia has come under fire for featuring the controversial article focusing on what it calls the trend for 'slave earrings'



Slavery and all that was associated with it, to most people conjures up pain, indignity, touture, violation and the worst type of human right violation one could ever imagine. Slavery does not conjure up high fashion, style or glamour! Surely in such a connected and more diverse world, Vogue should know better than to choose to name and celebrate a piece of fashion with such a strong association with slavery.
