Cassper responded to the tweet laughing at Pearl for falling and telling her as a “black woman” to leave riding horse to white people.

Pearl was not happy with Cassper’s remarks and called him out for undermining her as a black woman.
So you believe black women should be limited?
You’re narrow minded self also doesn’t know black people were riding horses on our continent for centuries?! And now as a black woman I must be confined to YOUR LIMITS.
Nigga GTFOH. https://t.co/hpYCSbwYpJ

Still, Cassper didn’t understand why his tweets were problematic.

Are you mad cause I laughed at your fall or cause I asked what a black woman was doing on the horse ? Wa phapha , that’s your problem. You just went at me and made this deeper than rap!!! Are you even good at riding? Why didn’t you just take a picture standing next to it? https://t.co/xiq4UxXBcd

And of course Pearl had all the time to explain why she was mad.
Im mad because you under estimate what I’m capable of because I’m black and a woman.
And for someone who’s been under estimated, you’d think you know how to act. That time you can’t even ride a donkey. FILL UP your mind with KNOWLEDGE next time. ? https://t.co/3TkISwlIjE
