I recently watched a short documentary called “The Colour of Beauty“, about the limitations that Black women are faced with when attempting to break into the fashion industry. That’s right, people; contrary to what Tyra and Top Model may have you believe, women of color are still having a difficult time with being valued in [...]

“Now girl step up to this, one simple kiss, and it’s over miss.” – Big Daddy Kane, “Smooth Operator” It really was a helluva day yesterday, folks. There was Herman Cain’s fourth accuser coming out; Dr. Conrad Murray’s verdict; the Penn State pedophile; hell, all we needed was O.J. Simpson’s jailhouse confession to killing Nicole, [...]

I have found that I am often mistaken for a “safe” Negro. This is disheartening, as a twentysomething Black woman, formerly known as a fire starter and warrior.
