shyt. Big asses weren’t in fashion until J-Lo was elevated by P Diddy. Big lips were considered ugly until Angelia Jolie made them “acceptable.” Rock, Blues, Slang. The list goes on.I’m less upset with the hustle and more with the audacity to act as if you “discovered” some shyt. I mean it’s a story as old as time with THEM but it never ceases to amaze me.
Just like how they discovered braids a couple years ago
Or how they discovered Ameri…you know what nvm

I just beat them at their own game. CACs are always gonna CAC. Black folk should really appropriate the confederate flag if we were really about it bout it. We’ve already done so with “nikka”.
Lol i get the essence tho breh. You right
Lol to each his own I supposenikka what is the big deal?
What nikka ain't been tearing that ass up from the back only the pull off her bonnet to reveal the natural naps or a freshly did do
Shiiiiiiiiiieeeeet I don't mind it
Now my wife n daughters don't wear they shyt in public but I wouldn't care if they did
How often you get to bytch shyt done?
Women who keep they shyt done wear bonnets sometimes
Nobody has to say it. Anybody who understands respectability politics and it’s root cause of conforming to the white gaze will already know. Attacking the appearance of African American women is one of the oldest themes of white supremacy along with painting us as brutes, any self respecting black person should reject it.c00n shytbut like you said, you already know
nobody ever said anything about white women wearing pj bottoms everywhere and them dusty ass uggs. I never understood what type of personality somebody has to have to care about what others are wearing. Ole “you making us look bad”head ass nikka
"nobody ever said anything about white women"...
Except you, in this thread, ironically
"pj bottoms everywhere and them dusty ass uggs"...
Those get mocked as white-trash, Wal-Mart shopping attire, try again
"what others are wearing"...
Image is everything, clearly you haven't matured enough to realize this yet
Was the black restaurant owner who banned twerking in his establishment conforming to “white gaze”?
Yeah, that’s exactly what I said. Being obtuse doesn’t support what you’re saying. I clearly said my parents taught my siblings to have pride in how we carried ourselves.So the issues in our community are because of the way some of us dress?
Lol to each his own I suppose
But like I've said earlier, in this world, image is EVERYTHING; especially when we're already at the bottom of society and have a negative perception in people's minds across the globe
There's a reason the NOI always wore suits in public
Ah I see, so you would rather that we continue to conform to the preconceived images that white supremacists have of us then? Conform to images that THEY created in the first place? The "mammy" (bonnets), the "brute" (durags)? It's not about ATTACKING our image, it's about PROTECTING our image. Nothing wrong with wearing these in private. However, in public, we should collectively shame this nonsense as a community.
