I really wished this idea was around when I was younger. What a great way to inexpensively make your little girl's doll more resemble her! I especially love the doll with the afro puffs. How cute.

Okay so I saw the above picture on Facebook and thought 'I am soooo doing this!'. I have never been one who liked black nail polish but I love the combination of matte and shiny black. 

Here is a video showing how simple it is.


So what do you think? :) Would you try it?

What's With These Dumb Arguments to Defend the Trayvon Martin Verdict?

What is this stupidity that I am seeing on my newsfeed on Facebook? Are people really posting stories of black people killing white people to prove a point. And what is this point? Did the black people get off? (with the exception of O.J of course) If not then why did you post it? The reason is that we still like to think that we don't have any racism in this country. Unless of course you are talking about reverse racism then it is alive and well. Ironic isn't it?

This is just not a black thing though. Look at all of the different races (and countries) that are gathering at rallies. This is a movement. The laws need to be changed. Period. How are you not promoting gun violence when you are giving people a green light to fire at will? How can this law not be applicable for someone who doesn't have a weapon or for someone who only fired a warning shot but didn't actually hurt anyone? It is a stupid law that is applied on a whim and not fairly. I mean reportedly some gang members are using the stand your ground law as a defense.

This is essentially what I posted on my Facebook (before I unfollowed some folks lol). 

Wished that I could have attended the rally for Trayvon in Savannah today. I think that people are missing the point in the outrage. This is not about a tit for tat as in well black people kill white people too and no one gets mad about that and hold rallies. This is not about ignoring black on black crime as in well did you see all of the murders that happened in Chicago just last week alone. This is bringing about a conversation that President Obama talked about in his speech which is this: 'If Trayvon was of age and had a gun and he shot Zimmerman would he have been able to claim a stand your ground defense?' You know he would not have. No one is trying to paint and make people feel like all white people are racist, we know that is not the case. This case just brings up the point that the laws should be changed. The fact that he is not even given the consideration that he was standing his ground against someone who had a gun profiled and stalked him is where the outrage comes in. He is essentially being blamed for fighting for his life. If you can't see that, then I guess we will just have to agree to disagree and the fact that a lot of people can't see this point is what saddens me the most about this case. What if Trayvon was your child?

May his soul rest in peace and may we get beyond some people thinking that this is about race baiting so that we can get to taking back our communities and to having meaningful dialogue about reducing violence.  

No Black People Using the 'N' Word Does Not Make Paula Deen Ok

I hear this time and time again from people. From "well meaning" news people reporting on a story about another races use of the word to just every day people and from black people too. What is this? It is this: "How can black people get mad when another race uses the 'n' word when sooo many black people use that word. I mean you hear it in rap songs all of the time."

Yeah ok. Have you heard the number of females who jokingly refer to their friends as a bitch? Even female artists refer to themselves as bitches in their songs. Does this now give everybody free reign to just haul off and call a woman a bitch? No, of course not. Then why would you even use this logic as a justification for her using the word nigger? (And no 'nigga' is not a cool acceptable form of the word.) It makes no sense.

She was dead wrong and if the report of some of her actions are accurate then she deserves to go down. I mean wanting to dress people up as slaves. Seriously! So that goes to show what her mentality is now for everyone who is saying what's the big deal about her using the word once upon a time (supposedly she doesn't still use the word).

My First Attempt At Marley Braids (Havana Twists)

(what they are supposed to look like)

Sooo I finally bought some Marley hair after watching a YouTube video that made doing this style (also known as Havana Twists) look so easy. I mean you part your hair into big sections. Put the hair in the middle. Twist it around the hair individually and then twist the hair together and boom there you have it! Uh no my first attempt on my first braid was more WTF than boom. lol. I guess we will see what it turns out to be :)

Undecided on If I'm Watching The George Zimmerman Trial

I am totally undecided if I am going to watch any of the trial. I follow Al Sharpton on Facebook so I know he'll keep me up on the happenings and I think that I should probably keep it that way. 

This whole case just makes me so angry. Not just because of what happened but because of the reaction to it. I have never seen a case where an unarmed person can be hunted down (a teenager no less) while not doing anything wrong, killed and then have a good bit of people take up for the shooter. I mean really? 

What possible reason could have justified the shooting. He said he was getting beat up. Well if you run after me and then pull out a gun guess what I'm going to do. I'm going to try my best to beat the hell out of you. What else can you do in that situation?

Like I said I think it's best not to watch it. My heart goes out to his parents. I can't even imagine going through that.
