Sistagirl, I know you know the deal. But, we have to continously get down to the nitty gritty for those misinformed from birth seeking knowledge.

Unfortunately. Some members of The choir has been brainwashed. So as always, we have to keep the Fro in the Chat to compensate for all the watered down coffee they have been ingesting Ya Dig My Sista.

Our Black men have practiced trying to entice themselves to the opposite sex by trying to do the same bleaching of hair at times and getting it more rich in texture instead of its original african cultured form!

2) The Eyes: LOL!! this is the part that has had our african-american community looking foolish at times and VERY WHITEWASHED because of this Brainwashing. We have a problem where CONTACT LENSES and the changing of the color of our EYES has been an MASSIVE participation in by YOUNG AND OLD ALIKE! LET ME LET OUR BROTHAS AND SISTAS KNOW:YOUR NORMAL BROWNISH/DARK BROWN EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL!
Why do i see brothas and sistas WEARING BLUE,RED,GREEN,HAZEL,AND ALL SORTS OF CRAZY COLORED CONTACT LENSES TO COVER UP THEIR NATURAL BEAUTY, with this being again a action derived from what we have viewed through the media AS BEAUTIFUL!! WRONG!!!! Contact lenses should be used for CORRECTIVE EYESIGHT brothas and sistas, not to try and emulate a WHITE/EUROPEAN FEATURE! LOVE YOUR OWN FEATURES, GET PRIDE IN HOW YOU LOOK SO YOU WILL NOT LOOK DOWN ON YOURSELF AND ANOTHER BROTHA OR SISTA FOR THAT MATTER!! This actions of shedding your african qualities and features is very RAMPANT throughout the community, and it all stems from WHITE AMERICAS Brainwashing/subliminal messaging advertising, because our youth are not seeing the equal share of their TRUE beauty in the MEDIA of which has taken over as the voice unfortunately for MANY!! So thats why our young and old view it as credible, WHEN IN FACT ITS VERY FALSE!!




must say this about the eyes and hair. my mom and i have always laughed and thought the opposite of what you're saying about that. we consider the whole hair and eye thing a form of self-expression. i know there are some confused ones out there, but i see the colored hair everyday in my neck of the woods and those women just change their colors with the weekends for the heck of it! no black/white issues whatsoever. and with the eyes, we can't deny that black people come with all the eye colors of the rainbow just like whites. again, i know there are some confused ones, but from what i'v seen everyday, these people just like green eyes for the week and then they're trying hazel ones the next, matching outfits and mess

"I dig." Thanks. And...I failed to mention "socially acceptable" euphemisms that whites, etc. now use in referencing US: it is called "code-speak."

Exclamation

http://what-ever-trend.blogspot.com/...manba-extreme- ganguro.html

Above is the link to the 'NEW FASHION TREND ' in Japan called Ganguro

inwhich japanese people are wearing brown makeup with white makeup around the eyes [ similiar to our usa blackface] and their hair fashion is blue/yellow/red hair.

I have spoken soo many times here on afrochat about brainwashing and subliminal suggestions and thank you for bringing this topic up again it's imperative now more than ever. I applied this link regarding the japanese's new 'so-call fashion trend.So they are dressing up in black face in their country now.

a disgrace to us they are now bringing this to the forefront again.

Very interesting sister, thanks for the link, hopefully brothers and sisters like us can keep feeding the truth and wake up call to as many others that are asleep!
