Black female entertainers get all over television shaking their ass, but when something bad happens to black people you can't find one of them. Where are the black female entertainers that's speaking out against injustrice? To be honest I haven't even seen any black female entertainers wearing an I Can't Breathe shirt. |

Black women in entertainment today, they think their role in life is to get on television and embarrass the black race. They think their role in life is to get on television and act a fool, fight, and talk about who they are sleeping with. |
