Here is one the many celebs part taking in this movement! |
Even though some people might find "Planking" entertaining and amusing, others find it to be disrespectful and racist. Planking is something that is related to slavery, where the slaves at that time where forced to plank side by side as if they were some cargo on a ship. Also according to one of our twitter followers who recently tweeted "The police have black people "Planking" everyday, wearing handcuffs with guns pointed at their heads."- @Leftsentthis
Although planking might seem harmless, it is still derived from something negative. So before you take part in these trends, ask yourself what's the purpose of it and where did it come from?
