Okay. Let’s really establish one thing: Black people calling other black peoples roaches is not racist or colorist. Y’all aren’t from places where people call other people roaches so many of you won’t understand.

Right. If anything “roach” is classist. It means “dirty, ghetto, unkempt” etc. I’ve seen it used as a slur for dark skin women too, BUT it doesn’t always mean that. Re: Cardi: she’d called herself a roach in old tweets when her hair wasn’t done & clothes a mess.
