I meant to post this Monday, but I've been a bit busy:
To recent reaction’s of Kanye West and Serena William’s outburst, no two events could have coincided better. Kanye West vocal rampage seems to support venus’ outburst. Why you say? Well West is simply implying that many times African American aren’t given the recognition that they should be given. And even if you’re the best of the best( like Beyonce), you still cant win it all. And this is a similar message behind Serena Williams. You can be the best of the best but baby, you cant have it all. You cant have the freedom to express your frustrations. No honey, not at all! I mean even after years of being called, “ a ghetto-man-hood-rat- too voluptuous for tennis-product of the Ghetto Compton-your daddy isn’t a gentlemen” you are not allowed to show your frustration.
Let’s seriously be real. African American actors, entertainers and athletes are under large amounts of pressure. They are under pressure to be the exception in white eyes, they are suppose to set the example in black eyes. Please don’t let their foot falter while they balance on one leg the expectations of society. Don’t get mad! Please cuz America doesn’t like an angry black man or woman!
