The negative images that I'm typing about existed for over a century and is manifested in different ways today.

I never saw McKinney as adding to a particular image of black women. Her actions are her own and make herself look a particular way. I guess some people tried to say McKinney adds to the "angry/complaining black woman" stereotype but everything adds to a more general stereotype according to some people.
