Instead of consistently putting entertainers on the cover, why not our women of the community? Civic leaders, artists, professionals...the other people who BUY the mag. If the mag is about us, shouldn’t we be represented? I would love to see sisters like Angela Davis, Toni Morrison, Susan Fales, Dr. Mynora J. Bryant, Linda M. White, Barbara C. Moore, Dr. Louise A. Rice...I'm saying take it to the next level. We're not all entertainers. [/B]

I totally agree with you, NP. I dont think the people at Essence would have anything to lose if they decided to concentrate, even for only a few issues, on REAL women. They do not even need to be big names to be important. Ordinary people make EXTRAORDINARY contributions to our communities everyday.

You rock, NinjaPoodle!
