Waka Flocka Flame says Columbus Day is a "spit in our faces."

Waka Flocka Flame called on Donald Trump to abolish Columbus Day on Twitter, Saturday. In doing so, he labeled celebrations of the holiday a "spit in our faces." In response to the post, many fans questioned why he asked Trump, when Joe Biden is the current President of the United States. It's also a strange time for the request, considering the day is celebrated on October 12.

"Dear Trump abolish Christopher Columbus Day… As a what’s called Blackman in United States this holiday is a spit in our faces… Thanks from Waka Flocka Flame and the People!!!" he wrote on the platform. The holiday is often also recognized as Indigenous Peoples Day, paying respect to the contributions and resilience of Indigenous peoples.

When The Neighborhood Talk shared a screenshot of the post on Instagram, fans had plenty of questions. "This is what happens when people are clueless to how it all works. Please go back to doing what you were doing smh," one user wrote. Another commented: "Telling a deranged racist who doesn't respect him as a human being to abolish a holiday about a drunken and deranged racist? Never going to happen."
