That’s a fair point. And you are probably not wrong in regards to Chen, King or Winfrey! I think I’m just a tad twitchy due to this idea that calling out women who are complicit, is the same as blaming them. 

...and NOT Julie Chen?

Wait. Italians aren’t white anymore? To be honest I thought Ariana Grande was Latina until it was lampooned on SNL. It reminds me of a quote by Gina Torres where she says when she started acting she realized that the ‘world’ wanted Latinas to look Italian, not like her (Torres) Black.

Wait. Ariana Grande is Italian. Have Italians gone back to being non-white? But, I’ll be honest until they lampooned it on SNL I thought Grande was Latina! Which we reminds me of a quote from Gina Torres where she says the ‘world’ wants Latina’s that look Italian, not like her, Black.

HBO territory. You just KNOW that there’s a monthly meeting tracking/forecasting the progress on the project for the next 2-6 years!

In principle you are right...however, much like trump calling Omarosa a dog...it’s not only about him. It’s about all the other Black people being treated like crap as we navigate this world. 

Good point...however, she actually usually dresses like that on the show, with those wonderfully crazy shoes. In hindsight,I have no good answer then as to why she’s not wearing them in the photo! :)

Which is strange. On the show she is usually wearing some OTT avante garde art piece on her feet! And she doesn’t shy away from heels. My guess is she relented, because they didn’t want her feet to be the focus in the photo!

That reminds me of an episode of the original Dynasty, where Alexis has it on!

God, I HATE those pearls. I’ve no doubt that she will end up at Fox. She’s from a politically influential family (dad already works there), she’s a conservative, Evangelical and can lie/spin with a straight, face. Although, I think her look will get MUCH more glam there, I think she basically will end up looking like…

I wonder how much of that has to do with Stevie Nicks, and her whole, wandering, gypsy, witchy woman thing?

Kellyanne Conway’s problem is her look is dated and tacky. I remember her from ‘Politically Incorrect’ and her appearances on news programs years ago...she pretty much looks the same. She’s desperately hanging onto the same hair color and length she had in her 30's. This woman is practically screaming for a personal…

Damn, Gurl!

I doubt that there are many surprises. Probably descended from a kitchen maid and a stable hand somewhere in Europe. Plus, a London prostitute who escaped Jack the Ripper.

You’re me! What I’ve tried to do is always come at Metoo from the perspective of Taurana Burke, Gabrielle Union,etc. because I think they do a great job of making sure that Black women are heard in this. Agreed about how you have to counter the ‘southern heritage’ argument with truth about rape, murder, family…

I get what you’re saying, but you know what, I think as Black women we have to sort of be truthful and acknowledge that it is a part of our history as Black people. Is it something to focus in day in, day out, no, but whenever I get the where are you from question—I say America, invoke Middle Passage and being a…

See...Omarosa is an opportunist, but she keeps it at home. Both husbands were/are Black and she was engaged to Micheal Clarke Duncan. She’s a terrible person, but she loves her sexual chocolate! Honestly, I still can’t believe that Diamond and Silk are real. I thought they were a comedy duo who were aiming for a…

We adopted two cats in December. Sameowl Jackson Galaxy, because he’s a cool, black motherfucker, who is sweet, but a little weird. And Stella Luna, because it took her awhile to get her groove around us, and she is a goddess.

This is so 40's inspired 80's. Take away the top’s print, and tell me that Joan Crawford wouldn’t have worn this in a film? Basically, it’s Rachel’s wardrobe from Bladerunner.

She’s seen as Black first, a woman second. So in the end, it’s a victory. Only straight, white, English speaking Christian women have the luxury of being female first. The rest of us have qualifiers.
