There's the million dollar question right there.
I have no desire to see this. Why? Tell me what you can do in one minute? People get disqualified for going over FIFTEEN minute time limits. A minute. Please. I wonder how many minutes will be spent on promoting the awareness of our orgs? I personally am getting a little tired of always being represented on TV as steppers. Then we wonder why that's all people think we do. Then get mad when people pledge for the wrong reasons. But we breed that very behavior when we support stuff like this. We're being exploited, and I really hate that. Can someone JUST ONCE have us on TV and we NOT step? Just once? Can we be interviewed about the work that we do in the community WITHOUT stepping afterwards? Just one time, just one. I'm not sayin I don't attend step shows, but I know what we are about. We need to try and convey some better messages. I guess I shouldn't knock the show til it airs, but whatever.

I am being a cynical binch today. I'm tired, and I do not want to go to work. Shoot. Can a sista get a holiday? I can't stand teachers!!!! Oops, was that professionist?
