Cosmopolitan pretty much justified why a "Black Girls Rock" exists
- Thread starter NYC Rebel
- Start date
Prove me wrong.
Wait there hasn't been one person to ever do that. Soooo
Don't be a sucker get on the empowerment wave instead. It's beautiful to not rely on cacs like a child.

White supremacy everywhere
You gotta be blind not to see it

receipts? Last i heard they werent owned by Black people anymore
Ebony is Black owned, Essence isn't
Essence
I've been saying it for years. White is the default in America
For instance, lets use the Chicago Bears as an example, when you pick your team on Madden, it has a default uniform. That default choice would be white if the team was American. And the Bears are going to play in those default unis the most. Every now and then you get to see an Alternate Uni, that is the black or any other minority group in America being put on display.
Those unis aren't called default (white/American) they are called Alternate (black/American) because it is a rarity to see it on front street.
this is why things like Black Girls Rock need to exist

Blackout
just your usual nerdy brotha
He has a point though.
Integration wasn't a bad thing its just that we didn't use it to our advantage.
Our forefathers didn't try to make enough black businesses back then to counter racist whites so now we are feeling the after effects of relying on white employers who may or may not be racist.
NYC Rebel
...on the otherside of the pond
There were more black businesses in the 50 & 60s than at any time in this country's history
Blackout
just your usual nerdy brotha
And many of those owners sold their businesses for short term cash.
One example being BET
Therefore what I said still stands.

Good idea! But smth deeper than Ebony and Essence,goddammit! It only takes me 5 mns to read about mother in law ish and low fat turkey stuffing recipes! Cosmo in case you didn't know is for Cac women and their peculiar idiosyncrasies like why you must fake an orgasm for Tom Cruise but not for Sasha Distel,interpersed with exhortations to buy Jimmy Choos and Loboutins which are apparently critical to female Cac self esteem.
