Hello

This is my blog. This is a very dangerous tool for someone like me. Someone who has been quiet too long and now has something to say...too much to say. I've decided to share my thoughts, opinions etc, with the hopes of generating conversation, creating dialogue, debate, what have you.
I might offend you, sorry up front, but I expect you to fire back, be bold, be brave...but respectful. We can agree to disagree...thats cool.

IN CONTROL OF OUR FUTURE said...

I don't disagree that Flav is making a fool of himself and of course the women that appear on these shows are totally degrading themselves all in the name of 15 seconds of fame. I agree that it is these types of television shows that take us (as a Black community) back 30 years, to when television didn't allow black folks on UNLESS they were making fools of themselves. But what can you say to a woman trying to do whatever she can to get discovered. We have seen the total lack of self respect these so called "video vixens" have for themselves - and most of them don't even get paid. Anything for a camera shot, and a blunt. In my opinion, this whole Flava Flav reality TV thing goes WAY beyond Flava making a bafoon of himself, this goes way beyond these chics trying to get discovered. The year, the age that we live in often forces us to question our integrity and morality, and if our self respect is not in tact, then it's easy to turn a blind cheek to our values system.
