The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice….I remember women used to
scream that out with pride, I remember when women were filled with confidence,
no matter the skin tone. I know women right now that are the color of
night and beautiful inside and out and no one or nothing can tell them
different. I remember the song U.N.I.T.Y when women tried to be one.
So my question is what happened to the rest of them? What happened to
the queens that were filled with high self-esteem and pride?
The past few weeks, people have been furious with folks such as John
Mayer, Wale and Kevin Hart. John Meyer for saying he wouldn’t sleep with
a black woman, Wale for not having any “dark skinned” women in his video and
Kevin Hart for cracking a JOKE on twitter…..on Twitter people, yes
Twitter.
Now as far as John Mayer goes, maybe the way he worded some things
was inappropriate BUT it’s no difference in what he said than a woman
saying she would never sleep with a broke guy, if you don’t want to be
put in a category then don’t categorize others.
Now with the Wale video, hmm… ok for one we work so hard to get rid of
racism and yet we are still displaying the act. As hard as women work to kick
in doors, how can some women complain about it being so hard for them
these days? What gives you the right to knock these women’s hustle? Black,
red, green, blue or white, people should fight for each other. Why should
someone have to put a certain skin tone in a position just to
make you feel better? Stop being so insecure in yourself and focus on
making self better, cherish your beauty and fight for that position. Stop
looking for hand-outs. Those women did what they had to do to make that
video, don’t take their joy.
Now with Kevin Hart….we are suppose to have freedom of speech. People
laugh all day when comedians make white jokes but can’t take it when it’s
on them, how sensitive and f*cked up is the world when comedians can’t
make jokes?
With all of the negative trending topics on Twitter, how can one be mad at a
comic for being a comic? The funny thing is, the same women that sit
around and get all sensitive about this type of stuff and yell “Woman
power” are the same ones that sit around and diss the women that are
trying to make a name for themselves such as Nicki Minaj.

There are enough politicians, radio host, and TV shows that you can
complain about. If you’re going to complain about something, complain
about how reality TV shows such as “Bad Girls Club” and other shows are setting
the WOMAN back. There are way more serious situations that you can direct
your anger at, so let’s focus on those…
Like I said before, we all have some type of hidden beauty. Let’s find it
and share it with the world in positive ways instead of always looking
for something negative. There is nothing in the world more beautiful than
a happy, secure woman, so stop looking for excuses to frown and embrace your
beauty… The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice right?!
