Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has been receiving major backlash from Black Twitter. Although Clinton appears to be winning the Democratic vote she has been pissing off many of the people who participate in Kwanzaa. Clinton changed her Twitter profile logo to a Kwanzaa-inspired version over the weekend, Rolling Out reports.

In her quest to become the first female President of the United States, Clinton has undergone recent allegations that might deter her from doing so. The publication reports, in addition to her Twitter logo antics, "The DNC is purposely stacking the deck in her favor over surging contender Bernie Sanders, to the long held opinion of many that she comes off cold and unfriendly, the former Secretary of State has seen more than her fair share of bumps in this election cycle."

Black Twitter bashed Clinton for what they recognize as, pandering. It has been previously reported that she changed her logo in honor of Rosa Parks. The avatar was a little off and offended many because she appeared to have Parks sitting in the back of H or as other refer to it as the back of the bus. Daily Dot reports, Clinton's Twitter avatar was changed to a Kinara, the traditional candle holder of the Kwanzaa.

Black Twitter voiced their opinions by using the hashtag #NewHillaryLogo and created parody avatars to imagine what future logo campaigns targeting the Black community might look like, the publication reports.

Many people just tweeted about the situation and addressed Clinton directly. Bossip reports that @kidNoble tweeted:

The publication also notes that soon after the parody avatars and messages came rolling in, Clinton's social media manager changed her logo back. Check out some of the avatars below.
