Not even being Zohran Mamdani’s stylist can protect the oppressed from oppression. The California Post reports:
Lefty former Vogue editor and Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s stylist Gabriella Karefa-Johnson downgraded her first-class seat — which was surrounded by “white middle-aged men” on a trip to Milan — because of “micro-aggressions” she faced from a male flight attendant.
The nature of the microaggression was not disclosed, but it forced her to…
…“sacrifice physical comfort” by moving to still-spacious business class “to protect my emotional and mental well-being.”
Karefa-Johnson is not just any oppressed black woman with a hyphenated name but a moonbat of historical significance:
Karefa-Johnson, who in 2021 became the first black woman to style a Vogue cover, left the magazine in 2023 after unleashing a rant days after Hamas’ Oct. 7 attacks on Israel — in which she likened the Jewish state to an “apartheid state” committing “genocide.”
Apparently it is possible to be too obnoxious a leftist even for Vogue. But she doesn’t have to worry about falling out with Mamdani.
She fumed about her departure from the magazine last year, saying, “Working in a place where this kind of vitriolic white supremacy goes unchecked is untenable.”
The Brooklyn-based celebrity stylist dressed New York City’s new socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his wife Rama Duwaji for inauguration day in January.
Don’t be surprised if she goes on to become Mamdani’s Senior Advisor on Race Relations.
Gabriella Karefa Johnson, who used to be an editor at Vogue, was on a first-class flight to Milan. There were only white men in the cabin, and she didn't think she was getting proper service, so she ostentatiously switched to business class.
