Black first family 'changes everything'

Quote:

* New first family offers fresh way to look at black family, some say
* Barack and Michelle Obama's chemistry inspires black women
* Black family might no longer be defined by its pathologies or humor
And the part I like!!! ;)

Quote:

Barbara McKinzie, international president of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, says she grew up in a small town in Oklahoma surrounded by black couples and an extended family of teachers and neighbors, who were knit together like the new first family.

She didn't need to look at the Inauguration Day festivities to see a vibrant black family.

For Those Who Care....
 
Terrence Howard may be off the market.

There has yet to be an official announcement but Terrence Howard is now engaged to Zulay Henao. Howard has been a co-star on films such as Crash and Ironman. Zenao is a Columbian actress who he met on the set of Fighting recently. Reports indicated they got engaged a week ago in the Czech Republic.
