So check out the video link below and you tell me "what is really going on???"
Black Women Dropped the Ball(Attitude,Weave and Disrespect) - The most popular videos are a click away
So what the problem is???
So check out this comment From Ms Huff in her own words:
You asked me to comment on the post "Did Women Drop the Ball" so here it is. First of all, it seems as though this young lady is referring to "all black women", and I don't feel like that is the case. Our ancestors brought us from "a mighty long way", and our older generations has continuously fought for our younger generations to take a look at where we have come from and be proud of who you are. Unfortunately, a lot of the younger generations have taken the term "freedom of speech" to a whole new level. With the new laws about what we can and can't do with our own children, the inability to protect and raise our kids the way our ancestors did, and the government being able to screw us anyway they want to, its not a wonder that our young people are falling between the cracks. Please don't put this on the black women as a whole. Its a combination of people doing what you have to do to survive, men and women not having the strong sense of respect for each other that was so evident years ago when there was no such thing as You Tube, My Space, etc. The size of your butt, the color of your hair, eyes, etc has nothing to do with whether or not you are trying to be something you are not - it has to do with your spirit. GOD made all of us equal, so if you want to wear your hair long and blonde or short and nappy, that is your preference, and that won't make you a better person then the next, it is what is in your soul. Since almost the beginning of time, women found out that "sex sales" and they have been exploited or have exploited themselves to do what was needed to take care of themselves and their families. I am not saying that it is right, I am saying that it is a way of life, and at this day in time, women just don't do it to survive, they do it for fun and to get what they want. However, if the men weren't there asking for it, they would have to figure out a new way of earning money, i.e. going to school, getting a job, etc. So for me, the bottom line is that its not just the black women that are at fault, its the black women, men, white, women, men, the government, the society, and the times we are living in. I am just very hopeful that Mr. Obama will give our young black people a new source of pride and reason to change their way of thinking.
Wow...
Was that awesome or what???
I got alot of feedback but none like this comment... I hope to hear from the rest of you...
As a "Culturally Conscious" commentator, I was emphatically culturally invigorated to spit this piece... Here it is real, right at you, and with feeling...
If it is a brotha thing then here is a piece from a brotha who understand your pain my beautiful black sistas...
Hello my beautiful black sista,
You have inspired me to write so here it is, fresh off the cuff... I hope you like it... J...
I speak from my heart, I know you question whether or not I am the true black brotha that will be there for you... Whether I will be the true black brotha that you can feel free to trust with your heart, body, and soul... Whether I am the true strong black brotha who you can't wait to come home too... The true strong beautiful intellegent black brotha who sends chills up and down your spill when he calls your name... The true strong intellegent witty black brotha who you can feel free to give yourself totally too... Who's strong black arms become your refuse and sanctuary, a place of serenity and peace for you... I truly believe that I am more than up to the challenge of the creed... But more than that, I believe that our black sistas are worth us black brothas stepping up our game... I believe the line that states, "and if I forget it, remind me" speaks volumes of the right attitude a true black brotha must have...
Yes, my beautiful black sista, I believe I must be able to handle it for you and all the beautiful black sistas every where, for if not I then who??? Who knows you the way I do, my black sista??? Who sees you the way I do, my beautiful sista??? Who's lips fit yours the way mine do, my beautiful black sista??? Who's ass rolls in perfect rythum to yours as mine do, my strong beautiful black sista... And who's sperm can unite with your egg to create another of God's perfect creations that looks like me and you my strong intelligent beautiful black sista???
Only your true black brotha, my strong intelligent articulate beautiful black sista...
So I must, we must, step up to the challenge inspite of our pass reputation... For that is the only way, another generation of black sistas and black brothas will be able to walk the planet knowing each time they look into the mirror that we made this pledge...
Besides that there aint nothing more sweeter, with an aroma more appealling, and looks more tastee, than your "Deep Dish Blue Berry Pie!!!" Yum Yum...
Can I have some???
Force feed me, please...

Now talk to me... If you feel me... IF you feel my sistahs who stood up to let their voices be heard... I got lot of calls today, but put your comment on this blog and stand up and be heard like a true beautiful black sista... Or "did you drop the ball???"
Hummmmm???
This matter is too serious to play with it... You got something to say, then say it....
We are all listening...
We will never fix it if we don't address it... Call everyone you know... Call "Ms O!"
Call "BO!"
Text, write, and email every brotha and sista you know... It is that serious... Otherwise, this sista is right, you did drop the ball??? Dah...
Let me feel you....
Otherwise Shut-Da-F__K-Up!!!
Because you are the problem and has chosen that you don't want to be apart of the solution... Or you Dropped the ball and don't give a Damn... The one thing I can not consciously stomach is just negativity toward the black sista that have the audacity to "Bring it!" Raw, with feeling, and a strong ancestral vibe that cannot be denied...
So where do you stand???
"Did Black Women Drop the BallII???"
