Angel Haze Helped a Homophobic Mother Accept Her Bisexual Daughter
In the past, Angel Haze raised her voice to speak up about her sexuality, slut-shaming and female discord in hip hop. Last night she opted to make a huge difference for one struggling family.
The Dirty Gold rapper/singer co-hosts Truce, a new MTV series that looks to have Haze and a team help people overcome conflicts in different relationships in their lives. This episode focused on a young woman, Briyonza, whose mother, Chiquina, refused to accept or engage with her daughter's bisexuality. Chiquina offered some shockingly naive commentary on sexuality ("Girls, I think they just try stuff...this is how people get hooked on drugs: They try things"), chalking up her nonacceptance to a literal phobia of homosexuality, along with religion.
Needless to say, things did not go well when Briyonza and her girlfriend tried to have a sit down with her mom and grandmother. That is, until Angel broke in.
