I heard about but didn’t watch the Beyonce television special that aired Thursday evening. I find her music utterly boring and know that no matter how popular she is today (in part due to hard work and her appearance) it will not endure decades from now. Plus her videos offend me.

While many of us enjoy a meal and fun times with family and friends let us not forget those interned, imprisoned or isolated. As 2009 comes to a close and we start to think about the coming year let’s carefully weigh our intentions and seek out those who will support us in our [...] Essence magazine is really taking this Black Friday sale too seriously…. Could this issue not be selling because it’s crap – and enough women have recognized it as such? Oh I certainly hope so!
Dear Readers: My current blogging schedule reflects the increased in-person relations and activities going on some of which is still percolating. I have lots of future exciting news to share!! Also, I have to complete my NaNoWrite Mo project. I attended the She’s Geeky un-Conference in DC last week and it’s been a [...] This week’s OSF meme is “I Had A Crush On” and of course the first song that came to mind was “Crush On You” by The Jets.

They even sounded black too lest we think [...] So I got an email alert from All-Hip Hop yesterday about the show Dinner Table Discussions. Please don’t ask me why I’m on their list.

We know Nancy Grace won’t be covering it (at least not with the zeal of other cases) so we must get the message out ourselves. I’ve noticed the focus is on the [...] My weekend has been great! I attended the She’s Geeky Un-Conference and met so many awesome women. I’ll be posting highlights, etc shortly. I have been humbled and encouraged by the intellect, kindness and generosity of spirit. Surrounding yourself with like-minded and positive people will make or break the quality of your life. [...] Back by popular demand – this week’s meme is “Not Sure Why They’re Famous”. Now this is very similar to one hit wonders so I was hard-pressed to think of a song honestly. Then I thought of a fun one by the group Blur. Since they’re still going strong and members’ side projects as well [...] So I’ve been reading about the number of black women seeking to free themselves from “creamy crack” also referred to as relaxers. Relaxers are similar to perms in that they alter the structure of your hair permanently. It’s designed to “relax” the natural curl pattern and texture. Amongst numerous blacks it’s thought to [...] |
