"Black Features Are Beautiful. Black Women Are Not" - Amandla Stenberg

[K.O.N.Y]

Most Asians and Latinas are poorer than African American women and live in abject poverty with nothing to support them but beans, bread and rice. Most black women in black countries don't complain either--I know because I've lived in the Carribean--just you losers in America. Kylie wearing cornrows is irrelevant. No white woman ever enslaved blacks so who cares? Yall are pathetic.

You dont like AA's yet you are always talking about us and subjects masked with "black" But mainly regards us specifically and our people. A huge reoccurring thing here on this site

Black American men have a huge problem with hip hop we get that. But overall we've done more to uplift black female beauty than anyone else in this past century

WTH are you taking about? What financial issue?
I'm not even talking about IR marriage rates I'm taking about opportunities for black women.

which goes through white men when it comes to the black community. You should know why

Anyways I don't know why you're doing this for, we both see eye to eye on the financial aspect of blacks in America, until we control it, we're gonna blame each other for any issues we face as a people. Feminism serves no purpose.

Amandla is a young bright sis. I appreciate her opinion she be checkin these lil hoes too.

It's kind of true. I never understood people who don't find black people attractive but love our uniqueness on others. It's like going to the islands on vacation and watching all the white girls getting their hair cornrowed. But let me walk into work with braids. You'd think I'd switched heads the way white co workers look at me. shyts laughable

Damn are some of y'all really black? Why is it that black women can support black males but y'all are NEVER on our side? Strange. Anyway she is saying simply that white supremacy mocks and belittles black women for our beauty(and culture) but at the same time copies our beauty (and culture) and are praised for it. Its just wrong.

And for the dweebs who are saying that black women just want to be seen as attractive in mainstream media, who the fukk doesn't? Who wants to be regarded as generally appealing just because . Asian women and Hispanic women don't complain about this because have they HISTORICALLY had their beauty undermined and attacked? Do they suffer the same abuse via white media that black women have historically? Are they compared to animals? Do their men put other mens' women before them and use every platform they have to ride with other women to attack their own women?

I can't believe some of you are in here acting like women are not valued based upon how beautiful they are precieved. Just look at Serena Williams, a dynamic athlete, being shytted on constantly for they way that she looks because of her black features. Wtf does the way she looks have to do with her abilites? Not a thang. But she disrespected in front of the whole world always being compared to a man. Thats the shyt that we black women have to deal with.

Nobody expect white people to use their media to uplift black women. WTF you lames? I don't care if non black people find black people attractive. But black women have always had our beauty disrespected. And we have a right to say something about the wack shyt. The only time I see black hurting is when black males participate in it. Black males turn on us just too much!

Goofy as black males out there! Realise that you make yourselves weak when you can't support the women of your own race. Constantly riding with other mens women. How fukking lame.

Very mature way of thinking for a 16 year old & she's 110% correct.

Black Woman are demonized for unique features. I grew up seeing nothing but skinny White Woman with no booty on magaizes all over. Then J Lo comes out an all the sudden America acted like they discovered a big butt. Look at how these racist are calling Senera a man. Also the whole "Good Hair/Bad Hair" thing did a number on the black female psyche. They are doing everything and anything to have whiter hair cause society told them their beatuiful black hair was ugly and not good. Anyone denying the Black Woman's features aren't demonzied are lying. This issue has effected Black Males as they have been brainwashed to hate the beauty of their own woman who look just like their mothers. It's sad, Glad Blackstar made this track:

The best way to fight that is for black media to become more powerful.

and this is what is really confusing about women who call themselves black feminists. they say theyre against patriarchy, but all the comforts that they want (and deserve) have been afforded to women that live within patriarchy.

many dont realize that if the black man wins, the black woman wins too. it seems like black feminists fear black male masculinity almost as much as white supremacists do.

real shyt, black feminists only show support for a black male man when he's either dead or feminine. when we're alive it's "fukk you nikkas, ya'll are worthless, misogynist, self haters" but when were dead it's like "we must end the war on black bodies #blacklivesmatter"

I support womanism. You can be a black woman and believe in the advancement of black women but that the man is the leader/head of household. I think we can address black women's issues too, particularly gender oppression, while fighting racism at the same time. It would be great if we had black men on our side. I don't think patriarchy is the issue here tbh. To me, the idea of patriarchy has been destroyed in the black American household for a long time.

Hmmm I thought that womanism was just black women's version of feminism. Didn't Alice Walker create the term? Since when are womanists patriarchal?

I'm not bitter you zeta. Are black men bitter when they complain about racism? No. They are justified. If you are even black( which I highly doubt. Btw white men are lame just from genetics) why would you not feel empathic when members of your race are abused? How are black women bitter because we stand up for ourselves? Maybe some of you zeta black males reading this should get some courage from somewhere like Amandla. Its truely a shame that a 16 year old girl has bigger courage than grown ass black males( industry nikkas and ordinary bm) who are completely silent when black girl/womanhood is attacked. But black women are expected to hold black males down. And you non black dudes on this forum can go to hell. Black girls don't fukk y'all anyway. You weirdos are on every fukking black internet site pretending to be us. You don't feel like losers?
