I am really tired of
1. CNN... Can someone inform them that we are tired of seeing SIU being played over and over again, if you have no news atleast put the journalists to task, maybe more AC's
2. Lou Dobbs...enough said.
3. American news in general, if I hear another story of how a cat was trapped on a tree as news ....
4. The missing little girl in the UK, in all actuality how does that affect me? Its not like I'll be able to provide any clues of her kidnapper coz of the simple fact that she's thousands of miles away. Or are they showing us this 'news' so we can empathise? If thats the case, then also show the millions of kids missing world wide. Better yet, do a special of the millions of victims in Darfur or is Maddie's life worth more?
5.Neo slavery...will it never end?
6.Robbery in the name of fine print
7.American hypocrisy
8.Ignorance.
9. The hypocrisy that is known as Christianity.
10.Poverty in Africa both real and imagined.
11. Movies. If you think about it, outside of 'News', movies are the podiums used to control and influence people's thoughts, I only watch a select few.
12.A majority of white people. No I am not interested in being your friend. No my biggest purpose in life is not to date a white guy. No I am not interested in giving you a free history lesson of Africa. No I'm not fooled by your fake smiles.
13. This ad on Mashada. It says 'Find your perfect Black mate' Everytime I log on, it annoys me. Its like we are just sitting around and white men or women, can come in and take their pick, as if we are pieces of meat just waiting to be picked. Maybe i'm overreacting, but I think that this and other such ads undermine our dignity and send the message that we are desperate to indulge with ' the great race'. As an attractive and intelligent black woman, I take great offense to white men thinking that I'm available if only they pick me. And it also annoys me when you visit Kenya and establish websites of how great your stay was and how Kenyan women were bending by the waist to serve you, dont come at me with that arrogance, you will be unpleasantly surprised.
14. Double standards especially in Racism.
15. The attack on Hip Hop. It is now making more money than prior anticipations and since they cant take it over like they did Rock and Roll, they attempt to kill it. If Hip Hop should die before I wake, I load an extended clip and bury them all day, roll through every station and murder the DJ. No I didnt say that, my favorite rapper did.
