Cal State University professor Melina Abdullah, infamous for her involvement in the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, has once again stoked controversy. This time, she’s targeted the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl win and Taylor Swift fans as bastions of “white supremacy.”
Abdullah, a Pan-African Studies teacher and co-founder of the LA BLM chapter, took to social media to vent her misguided frustrations. She ludicrously labeled the Super Bowl outcome as a “right-wing, white supremacist conspiracy.”
She said that discomfort with an abundance of American flags or being a Taylor Swift fan is indicative of similar “feelings.”
Why do I feel like it’s slightly racist to be a Taylor Swift fan?

“Why do I feel like it’s slightly racist to be a Taylor Swift fan?” Abdullah wrote on X.
This is the same woman who equates patriotism with racism when she sees too many American flags,” she wrote.
She further wrote, “Folks think they’re attacking me by asking why I think everything is racist…I’m not offended. Virtually everything is racist.”
Abdullah’s controversial statements are not a new phenomenon. She previously tweeted that white people shouldn’t aspire to attend “Juneteenth cookouts,” suggesting it should be a “reparations day.”
Her lineage includes a union organizer father and a grandfather who opposed the Nazi regime. After her marriage ended, she chose to retain her changed surname.
Abdullah proudly identifies as a Black Lives Matter organizer and holds the distorted belief that “virtually everything is racist.”
