Mariah, Whitney, Celine, Babyface, Keith Sweat, Kellz, and everyone in Boyz II Men and TLC would like a word with you about that

Aaliyah was an average bytch in every aspect.....if she didn't die no one would give a fukk about her anymore

what did this bytch do to deserve a biopic besides getting piped by R. Kelly and die in a plane crash

:deadrose: It's like once you die you become a "legend" & @Poitier you're one dumb SOB makin REAL militants look bad

ironic since she's dating a 28 yo man

:leon:

She's rumored to be dating Trevor Jackson....who is 17.

Shocking, considering the amount of wenching in the entertainment business.

Anyways, I still can't support this movie. Apparently, her mother and brother are strongly against it, but her Uncle, who controls her estate, is on some bullshyt and is going along with the movie anyways.

Who said anything about oppression?

I don't believe in multiculturalism. I believe that people seek to be among their own (there is tons of data to support this). I believe all groups deserve their own autonomy and to be free of oppression of another group. Instead of making everyone the same, I think we should embrace our differences and respect each other. As for biracials, they should be judged by merit like anyone else. Sorry I don't think they should be first in line for Black MINORITY roles, they should lobby for more biracial roles if it is an issue.

This is a pretty good post.

I think one of the stupidest things I hear these days are young parents saying they’re going to teach their kids “not to see color”, or that they themselves don’t see it. Especially young black parents. Are you serious? In this world we’re living in, you want to intentionally put your child at a disadvantage by telling them that foolishness?

Different races bring different cultures and ideas to the table which keeps things varied, progressive and interesting. Salsa, Anime, Hip Hop, Bollywood films, Italian food and everything in between come from different races of people and contribute to the overall beauty of the world. Seeing color isn’t the issue. We should see color in all of it’s gloriously diverse exuberance.

What we SHOULDN’T see is inequality through color. Many people do, and that is the problem. Separate but equal was horrible only because it never truly did what it said. It was more like “separate and unequal”. A TRUE separate but equal – which I’d like to think of more as DIFFERENT but equal – is where blacks, whites, Asians and everyone else are seen as different but EQUAL in their potential to be capable of greatness, intelligence, stability, love, and peace. That isn’t an ugly thing at all. It’s actual quite beautiful. Fairness, respect and love are the answers to the racial issues of the world – not homogeny. Miss me with the “color doesn’t mean anything” garbage.

Love your blackness, your whiteness, your orientalness, your latinoness, and make sure your children are brought up to do the same, but be SURE to show them not only the beauty of their own race, but of the races around them as well. If we do not love ourselves first, we will be incapable of loving other races. We'll simply be seeking them out to be validated(if our self hatred makes us believe their race makes them better than us) or to look down on them (if our self hatred encourages us to look down on people who are beneath us so we are "elevated")

Good bye Coli(2014-2020)
:salute: To Zendaya for getting the role.
Ya'll complain about up and coming black actors/actresses not getting work then then wanna be mad when they do.
She doesn't exactly look like Aaliyah. So what? Lindsey Lohan didn't exactly look like Liz Taylor in her Biopic.
Let Zendaya cook.

She doesn't even look remotely "black"....

Y'all act like Aaliyah was some kind of real legend or something. Ain't nobody doing that much work to find somebody to play her in a biopic. :troll:

This girl looks exactly like Aaliyah.

The hate for gorgeous biracial girls continues on the coli. I guess most of you dudes are really unattractive hateful darkskinned black women
