I totally agree with this notion. It's sad that the United States is portrayed as a better place for opportunities internationally. Obama's pushing for better health care and education for Blacks but I believe change is going too slow, which is keeping Blacks at the bottom of the social ladder.

I love this blog entry because young people are the dominant voice not only in Black society but globally. For us to not doing anything about our future makes it worse for us and that will put us in the wrong as role models for the next generation. Barack Obama has a great impact on us and it's our responsibility to still have his back to keep him in office. This blog reminds me of The Power of The Young people presentation by Dr. pollard in Freshman Seminar class.

I agree with this entry because the media makes it okay for America to shun dark skinned females. There is a constant appearance of lighter females in videos, fashion shows, magazine ads etc. For example, in class we observed the magazine cover with Precious in a lighter shade verses her original pigmentation. I've never noticed how magazines change the color of our Black women before class. I feel like its becoming worse and I'm glad that you wrote this entry because this opinion needs to be heard.
khe bottom of the social ladder.

I really like this poem because it was truly inspirational to and I'm sure it will be to other Black individuals as well. I can relate this poem to Radiah's blog entry on the Skin Tone Debate in America because this poem can motivate those females that may have darker skin tones. Females with darker skin tones are constantly put in the back or aren't in music videos anymore. Why is the media splitting up the Black community?

This is a good entry because I found this discussion in class very interesting. I believe everyone in class was intrigued during this topic because all of us can relate to either the single or double family. I agree with you when you said it depends on the way the children are brought up. I had a single parent also for the majority of my childhood. I guess we turned out pretty good.
