Gilbert Arenas has apologized for the comments he made about dark skinned black women. Taking to social media, the former NBA baller explained that he misinterpreted what he read, which resulted in him making comments that were wrong and insensitive. He also adds that he was trying to defend all shades of black. He writes:

I never say sorry for the sh*t I say but it’s my fault I read this wrong and got into my feelings…I thought it was saying,if ur mixed ur not considered black and beautiful and my kids are mixed and dark skinned so I perceived it how I wanted to..I just got off the phone with the only women who tells me when my shit stinks,and I know it’s comes from the heart becuz she will defend me in front of everyone else and cuss me out when we’re alone @christyarenas she reread what it said (your African features are all the attractiveness u need) so I erased to kinda say sorry but not say sorry becuz u can’t truly blame me for reading it wrong (I went to public school) so I read it how I thought it was written….I f*cked this up so I deserved the hatred that comes….I was trying to defend all shades of black but that’s what the post was also doing…I ended up pulling a COON moment…sorry all shades of black women no need to forgive me Im pretty sure I’ll say some f*cked up shit probably in two weeks ?? (I know p*ssy prices about to double up on my *ss from black women ?) and as for lupita she ain’t cute to me sorry…just like I’m not cute to 95% of u…
