We can't control anyone's actions but our own. We do have a right to our opinion tho, so I don't mind the outrage.

This is what white people do. They are habitual line steppers who cry victim when people criticize them. Elaine Whatever her face is c00ning hard. But she's biracial, so she's probably, most likely identifying more with the white girls at her job.

Both her, the model and Rachel Dolezal are confused on what blackness is. We should not let white folks dictate or define blackness. It is not a recreational club, you can not join just cause you enjoy hip-hop or soul music, like braids and tan instead of burn.

I am insulted.

Of course unless your hispanic, but if you got any black in you your black in America and your black to them.


like I said blake Griffin and akon would both check off "african American" :manny:

How do you know Blake Griffin doesn't check off "other" for bi-racial? He has every right to.
I have a feeling most people see him as bi-racial and not black. When the cops are randomly pulling people over for DWB I doubt they're going to stop someone looking like Blake Griffin.

:mjlol:Gotdamn this is a stupid ass analogy. Wearing fake hair of a different texture on top of your real hair is nothing like wearing shoes on your feet. Shoes are worn on the feet for protection. Stop perpetuating the lie that black women wear weaves to protect their real hair when we all know that the weaves are hurting black women and their hair. :heh:At the idiots who dapped this. Wearing fake feet on top of your real feet would be an accurate analogy to wearing weave. The ridiculousness of that speaks for itself.
If protection for your feet was your only concern why do you wear shoes with so many different colors, shapes and textures? Why can't you just wear Brown sandals? Why not just go barefoot if weather permits?

Once again... Weaves are very varied. It's not just straight pendejo. A lot of the time men can't even tell because you're ignorant of that type of knowledge but men know so much about black women's hair.

By racial is not a race breh, and since you can't be white if your mixed you have to be black. It's a simple dynamic, also using the cop analogy to prove blackness is not really a good idea.

If you walk around and ask mixed kids what the identify as 99% will say black in the end.

Brazil’s Carmen Miranda and Cuban singer-actor Desi Arnaz


Last year, Miranda’s famous appropriation of Afro-Brazilian culture in which she simultaneously put its originators in the background was remembered in the February issue of Vogue Brasil magazine. In the photo layout entitled “Carmen Miranda Re-Loaded”, the Dutch model Mirte Maas re-created Miranda’s look while the black Brazilians in the photos are noticeably cast in the background almost appearing to be simultaneously entertaining, protecting and even serving her (the first photo of the layout is featured at the top of the page and the others below). Although the models Suzana and Suzane Massena are very well-dressed in the photos, the stern looks on their faces suggest that their presence is not necessarily that of enjoyment. In the photo at the top of the page, the women are entertained by members of the Bahian cultural group Olodum, again, with the clear focus of the photo being the white model. Of course, the image can be interpreted in a number of ways, but lest we not forget that in Brazil’s media, black women have always appeared in the background, in a position of service or pampering white women.


Against this historic and current background, we present Mara Gomes’ analysis of what appears to be yet another sign of white appropriation of a black art form. This piece originally appeared on the Blogueiras Negras blog.


Lets not forget about this..

In every picture I looked up, none of these japanese girls look happy to be there but ofcourse their purpose is only to elevate Gwen as some sort of white goddess and they're reduced to lowly servants....smh.

This is nothing but a deflection. The point is that shoes are worn to protect the feet. You're trying to make the argument that black women wear weaves to protect their hair which is obviously bullshyt.

Once again... Weaves are very varied. It's not just straight pendejo. A lot of the time men can't even tell because you're ignorant of that type of knowledge but men know so much about black women's hair.
I never denied that weaves vary punta. I'm saying that your analogy was stupid and didn't make a lick of sense. I'm saying that black women aren't wearing weaves to protect their hair. They're wearing weaves because they're not proud of their natural hair. If it makes you feel better to convince yourself that men can't tell the difference then knock yourself out.

So what are people doing who don't like their feet? They keep them covered in shoes and socks. Doesnt mean everyone who wears shoes hates their feet. Which was my point stated in that post cabron.

True, but they can't do to the Japanese what they've done to Africans in the Americas. The power balance is different.

What part of "your shoes/weave analogy was stupid" didn't you get? Shoes were invented to protect the feet. Weave was invented to enhance physical appearance. Your point is invalid.

The argument isn't that every woman who wears weave hates her hair, the argument is that most black women who wear weave do so because they're somewhat insecure and don't take pride in their natural hair. You want to deny that and pretend as if black women mostly wear weave just to protect their own hair, deflecting from the self hate issue.

If it doesn't make sense it's because you don't know what you're talking about.

Weave isn't new. Why do you think so many women who went natural went back to using extensions?

You would know if you were part of the community. Or if you read the whole thread.

Kinky hair needs to be stretched to prevent breakage. The result is very basic. Just like we could all go back to wearing loincloths and sandals to be natural.

To add to the appearance, they add extensions for thickness, length and style (and yes protection). Just like we have sneakers, dress shoes, slides, flip flops, and different kinds of clothes.

I don't need to be naked or walk around in my underwear to show I'm proud of my body. Same with my hair.

The rise of poetic justice braids, Marley twists and crochet braids came from the natural hair movement. Because while protecting their hair for growth, they did not want to sacrifice style.

I have explained myself already multiple times, so I won't be replying again, you either get it or you don't.

Eat a dikk bytch. Posters tickle me with this "I won't be responding anymore" shyt when faced with someone challenging the stupid shyt that they're saying. Comparing weave to shoes is dumb as hell and only an idiot with think that's a valid comparison. Please don't respond.
