Lena Horne to Nikki Giovanni Lena Horne “ I didn’t have the strength to be with a black man”.

[Ya?]

Lena Horne was a heavily admixed woman who could easily navigate this world with less racial stigma than the average Black person she never was going to get a dark skinned black person experience.

Bruh...you ever see that James Earl Jones chit?

No, what is it?

You are romanticizing struggle as if that’s all black people m/women are good for?

I think Black people have struggled enough.

So, you equate black on black love with struggle.

Lena used cacs to get into the industry


She wasn't a c00n tho

That LITERALLY makes her the white man's whore.

I gotta admit...some interesting replies in this thread. Lena is getting a pass harder than a stack of bricks...I suppose because she is articulating it nicely. Or because dudes are just used to getting shyt on so much. I can't explain it......

I think it has to with her just being honest. A LOT of women are not going to do that. I'm not giving her a pass, Im just happy she said it. she basically told you their secret.

Pretty much bro. I don’t agree with her either but I’m not gonna bash her for her honesty. I think I said it in this thread that I’d put this along the same lines as passing.

That shyt was crazy. All the things he says apply today. This lets us know shyt isn’t new.

We really calling Lena Horne a Bedwench? No respect for Black entertainers of yesteryear? No respect for black giants in the industry who actually did things for black ppl?

Two unrelated things
