Yes, the plight of the black woman is something that is interesting to study. We are considered the least desirable, etc. but we are simultaneously the most copied...

I know for some, this will be easier said than done, but black women, please embrace your total self, please stop seeking love in places where there is none, please celebrate each other, please stop being bitter and hateful to one another and one more thing...

Stop being Jezebels and side-chicks. It shows we do not value ourselves and it is embarrassing. I say all of this with total honesty and love. There will always be those who will not value us and will NEVER see their role in why we hate ourselves. Embrace your total self. Please.
