Curly hair is not exclusive to black women. Also they do not "perm" their hair to be more white; likewise, white women do not curl their hair to be more black.
I've read plenty of your "illegitimate black baby" threads, and it's mind boggling that you continue to spew this nonsensical bullsh*t and the mods haven't shut you down. You're a racist bigot and it's time you logged off the internet.
I'm starting to think the mods in the Current Events section are upvoting these bigots. That stuff gets shut down quick in the NYC section thanks to Seventh, he's great.
If you think he's bad, take a look at our favorite senior citizen poster who does nothing but generalizes and insults Blacks.

America often tells one-sided stories of history and many don't want to deal with the guilt of the atrocities inflicted amount many different people and cultures. There was tons of STEALING going on and back then blacks had a lot less rights and when it's their word against "the man's," whose do you think held up in court?
This isn't to say Elvis wasn't a great performer, etc. but many blacks were discredited and stolen from (and that also isn't to say there never was a white person who gone through the shadiness of record companies, but it pales in comparison).
That would be cool, except Motown didnt exist until 1959.
Just to name a couple of black cultures that used wigs, makeup, etc. are the eighth to seventh centuries in Egypt and Nubia in North East Africa.
Egypt isn't a "black culture" nor was it a "black culture" in the seventh-eighth century, so I assume you've been badly misled by some afrocentric professor or book or something.

There are essentially no blacks in Africa outside of Sub-Saharan Africa. They "don't count" because they don't exist. There are more blacks in Europe nowadays than in North Africa. If you visit Algiers or somewhere there will be no black population compared to somewhere like Paris. Hell, you will see more blacks in Stockholm than in Cairo.

I'm sorry, but I think you're misled. 16th century Africa, at the time of the slave trade, was much poorer than today. It was overwhemingly loosely knit tribal societies that were warring with, and sometimes enslaving, one another. It was indeed "dirt poor" by modern day standards (and probably even for the standards of 500 years ago). There were certainly prosperous kingdoms in black Africa, but they weren't the norm, and they weren't around by the colonial era.
She's right. America loves black culture but hates black people.
It was painful to watch/listen to her read another's POV off of a teleprompter as do many actors who are supposedly doing PSA work. It was apparent she had rehearsed it a few times prior to this recording but she was merely paying the majority of what she read lip service.
She got her dumb face on camera so everyone can form an opinion and comment; big deal. What she had to say impacts my life in no fashion whatsoever.
To the comment about her getting a $M athlete boyfriend who might beat her up in an elevator.

If fashion&business101 is going to use Motown to disprove Rockabilly was the predecessor to 'classic' rock and roll - and that Elvis, a rockabilly starter stole from Motown, then he's obviously wrong.
Sorry, if you cant handle these facts.
A lot of beautiful music was created in the 60s by both black and white artists. And, guess what? They even collaborated!
Dionne Warwick and Burt Bacharach were a dynamic team whose collaboration produced many hits, and even made her a superstar in her day.
You cant accuse Elvis of stealing from something that wasnt there. Can you?

I guess some people can. *shrugs*
What facts have you presented? Rock and Roll (and Rockabilly too) didn't start with Elvis, you have to know this. Quick question, do you actually listen to this stuff or are you just talking?

Yep, do you listen to it?
Rockabilly is a combination of Rock and Roll and Hillbilly music a.k.a. Country Music. Elvis was a hillbilly, lol.
The pre-1950's Rock and Roll is not what we know as "classic" Rock and Roll, last I checked. Led Zepplin and Aerosmith are examples of 'classic' Rock and Roll.
I said what I said - go back and read it if you really care to know what I said. By your question, Im not sure you can even digest what I said. But, you can always try to impress me with your reading comprehension skills, if you need to.
