Greetings Ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Sisterfriends, etc.
The sad thing is, I heard on the "Tom Joyner Show" (I think) that Cita was BET's solution to the many complaints about the lack of darker-skinned VJ's on BET. Since when does pigment decrease brain size and increase vulgarity? UGH! She is sickening. You mean to tell me they had to use a computer generated individual as opposed to a human being to resolve this problem? C'mon!
I have stopped watching BET altogether because if BET is for us then they should reflect that by having sisters and brothers of every shade doing the news, VJ-ing, etc. I know BEAUTIFUL people in all shades. It seems to me that they think the epitome of a black person is someone who is light-skinned. BET needs to open their eyes and stop perpetuating these strerotypes.
Sorry....I got kinda "open".
Anyway, have a great weekend all and a safe Mother's Day. Happy Mother's Day to all the moms! Let yourself be pampered....you deserve it!
