Lifetime is set to debut a new show called Girlfriend Intervention. It’s a makeover show similar to Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, only this time, a group of black women makeover white women.
……
A teaser for the show opens with “soul coach” Tanisha Thomas saying: “Trapped inside of every white girl is a strong black woman waiting to bust out.”
……
The first episode, entitled “Joanie Get Your Groove Back,” is full of absolutes that paint black women as infallibly confident and self-assured and white women as mousey, timid, and bland.

Included are statements like:

”With Caucasian women, everybody’s afraid to say how they really feel.”

“There is not a sister on this planet that will miss out on a red carpet event because she felt like she was too fat. Honey, that is a white girl problem if I ever heard one.”

“No self respecting black woman would ever hide herself in this if she wants to keep her black card.”

”Unfortunately, my white girlfriends, if they are anything other than a size 2, they are nervous and scared.”
