If BLM activists are so proud of their heritage why do so many of them want to look white? ‘Celebs’ like Beyoncé, Naomi Campbell, Meghan Markle, all straighten their hair. Numerous celebs (eg Beyoncé again) dye their hair blonder, as do many activists seen on TV as well as black reporters. And so many wear straight-hair wigs... And why do some e.g. La Toyah and Janet Jackson, lighten their skin and have plastic surgery on their noses to make them smaller? Michael Jackson ... well we won’t even go there. Just wondered.

Well Theland, it looks completely racist out of context, and was an utterly ridiculous thing to tweet.

Her explanation that lives don't matter simple because they're white (which is similar to saying "all lives matter" in a round about way) gives her tweet some context, but it was an utterly deplorable way of saying it, for someone supposedly highly intelligent.

It looks like a lot of the replies she got on Twitter were just as bad as her tweet, if not worse.
Mamy; I thought the question was about 'celebs' who are "BLM activists" wanting to change their appearance to "look white".
Michael Jackson had the power of foresight then.
Ken - It was. But it appears to have wandered off into the usual racist diatribes with only the very vaguest connection to the actual OP......and no members of BLM seem to actual have been named, just a small list of black women.
THELAND, does your Sudanese daughter-in-law have "full blown African" features? 
Theland - // Just look at BBC news presenters and reporters.
Most of the women have darkish skin and that's it.
Not one, (as far as I can tell), any with full blown African features, b!back skin, thick lips, flared nostrils and frizzy hair.
The BBC like to say they are diverse and inclusive, but shy away from using the true Africans on the TV. //

I am unsure which area of the country you live in, but if you got your local news coverage from the BBC Birmingham studios, as I do, you would see a number of black presenters of both sexes who tick your box requirements for actually being black - and they have a number of Asian presenters as well.
Theland - // I think if the BBC go for the full, ''African Look,'' as they should if they practice what they preach, many viewers will turn off, preferring to view their own, '' tribe.'' //

No, the majority of people are not like you, seeing 'colour' at every twist and turn, except, ironically, in your own family, if we are to believe you.

When I turn on the news, I am interested in what the newsreader is telling me, I honestly don;t think about the colour of their skin, and if i did, it wouldn't put me off because they are 'not of my tribe'.

Do you ever run these views past the non-whites in your family? Oh no, you have no room for race and politics do you?

Just as well for them - they are spared your abhorrent views, maybe you do to them what you do to us, bore us with religion every day.
Try putting a blindfold on when the TV News starts and see it changes anything.
Putting on a blindfold is a favourite position of many ABers.
I'd probably just listen to the radio news, much less dangerous when making tea or chips.

(Other activities deemed dangerous when blindfolded are available.)
Mamya - // Try putting a blindfold on when the TV News starts and see it changes anything. //

Theland would need to blindfold his mind - that's where the problem is.
I see ken ,Mozz etc neatly turn the point of the link. How more trite can this needless killing be?. We do not thrust a anarchic organisation with the most inane slogan down people's throats by stating White Lives Matter every time a white thug kills someone and more to the point, how come there is no looting, arson, rioting and protests when a Black thug kills two of their own. No black protests when they slaughter their own . That is the stupidity of the BLM organisation. It appears, just like the N word, it is OK for a rap singer and followers to use that word but so wrong for anyone else.
Double standards comes to mind and they are pleading for equality.
Sorry if my point went 'whoosh'.


If you can tell how flared someone's nostrils are with a blindfold on well I envy you, I'd just like good vision personally and I wouldn't abuse it.
Good point,Retro,said the same to my Daughter today.
I doubt their accents sound African enough for THELAND so a blindfold would be of little use.
//I see ken ,Mozz etc neatly turn the point of the link.//

Really? I thought we were responding to the post you made.

The response to the link is that young people change the way they look, whether black, white or any skin tone in between. Nothing to do with race, just to do with fashion.

Oh dear. I missed that. Never mind.
Same reason white people visit tanning salons I guess.
