For nearly a decade, the Kardashians have aligned themselves closely to blackness and black culture. From body augmentations, to fashion, to their relationship, the Kardashians have used the social capital black culture has afforded them to expand their empire. The Kardashian-Jenner sisters have several businesses to their names, and quite a few of them have been accused of ripping off black creators. The biggest culprits in the family by far are Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, and Kylie Jenner. Their businesses accused of stealing from black creators include Good American, KKW Beauty, the Kylie Shop, SKKN by Kim, and the Kendall + Kylie brand. Luckily, the owners of these brands, who are black women, have spoken up for themselves and their businesses. They include:
