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

[godkiller]

I still fail to see this black women oppression, I don't see what's so oppressed about it. Women are desired of all races, what's the problem? I still think theyre mad they don't have the beauty of being taken care of like some white women have. All thst anger books in and they rent out cuz females don't feel they get the privilege white women get. The "I can make a sex tape and still be a millionaire and have multiple men wanna wife and take care of me" attitude alot of white women get.

Being sexuslly desired and being marriage material I guess is two different things.

I never hear Hispanic or Asian women bytch over this shyt.

Black men already like black women so the latter isn't complaining about that. They're complaining b/c cacs don't want them, essentially. Their screeds are basically C00n cries black men need not listen - and the rest of men need not heed.

What about it? There are cacs who say and write the same sentiments. The girl herself is an image of privilege; her mother is anti-black (some ugly crone with no man); she herself engages in c00n activity. She doesn't practice what she preaches and represents ill.

Black feminists would be better off HELPING BLACK MAN, instead they are out here trying to bash, whore and complain their way to victory. They miss the forest for the trees. Women rise and fall with their men; they live and die with their men. It has always been so.

The sad part is that all other feminists get this except black women. Black women are the only group who throw their own men under the bus. White feminists never throw white men under the bus. This is why they never stand with black woman against a white man. The only time they pretend to care about a issue concerning black women is when it's time to tear a black man down. Feminism is nothing but a hustle. White feminism is the female branch of systematic white supremacy. Black feminism is just an advocacy group for black women inside the system of white supremacy. They get little bullshyt privileges in return for being on call whenever it's time to throw a black man under the bus and sabotaging black unity.

You think the majority of African Americans have 25% or more European ancestry. Why would I care?

I think it's just a cry for money sisters tend to not consider white men masculine it's just the follower mentality. bytches chase power and black men as a group is the weakest.

Depends on the specific African American region but I digress. If nonsense like Amanda Sternberg (however you spell her father's Jewish last name) continues, that number will undoubtedly climb. And then what? Tell me: what happens next? Like I have said in the past, IR relations are not good for black people. Bedwenches and their misbegotten offspring doubly so. It's all ironic.

Of course it's okay now.
The mother in this instance is black and the father is white.

She's basically just repeating black feminist doctrine and twisting general black issues into gendered ones. To what end? I don't know. People are not going to change their mind about how beautiful a woman is based on activism.

Also, the girl says all this crap, mind you, despite the fact cacs gave her the Rue role unjustifiably because of her mixed race, which is a type of privilege over black women, and while she dates a cac, which is a type of c00nery. Feminists are so confused.

this post, pretty much.

But I still think the points about cultural appropriation are solid, absolute, and gives ether to cacs. And white supremacy DOES produce self-hate/anatagonism in imagery and beauty standards that's aren't eurocentric. It does effect us visually. It effects this entire forum here.

Black men really need to start checking that "intersectionality" bullshyt because there's people who really thinks that nonsense holds weight. "Black women have it twice as bad cause we black and women". Like black men enjoy a privilege for being black men.

For real, black men are the forefront of black destruction.

Can we not? Pls

You can but I dont..they sit on the fence, have an affinity to cacs so ultimately too risky to trust them. They have cac genes for fukk sakes..

I think that's only true for tragic mulattos.

Are you a female of color? Because I'm not understanding why you feel entitled to speak over females of color when you have NEVER lived your life as one. Your experiences are not going to be the same point blank period! This isn't even up for debate

I like this comment.

@Elle Driver don't you think this thread should've been in the Salon? Since it's talking issues which affect Black women especifically?

WHY ARE WE STILL TRYING TO APPEAL BLACK BEAUTY TO NON-BLACK AFRICANS? 90% Black men still love black women for who they are AS WELL as what they have. This is more a call to action for BLACK AFRICANS to represent ourselves in black owned media/sources more than anything else

And I like this one too. Especially the bolded.

who gave this chick authority to speak?

Same person who decided Ol Becky on the left is actually a "light light skin" Black woman.

Since people are talking about if posters "really read what she said," I don't see how those people don't see that this diatribe is a futile attempt to get people who control the images to recognize and respect black women's beauty.

Unfortunately we dont live in a secluded bubble. We also DON'T control our images. So at this point in time its not as easy as you thing just not to care.
