Open Letter to Debra Lee

Dear Debra Lee,

I see you have a thing for open letters, well I do to.
Recently Teresa Wiltz wrote an article about BET in the Washington Post profiling of your head of “Entertainment” Reggie Hudlin’s demise from cutting edge skewering of BET founder with Aaron McGruder ( Creator of the Boondocks): to Hudlin’s current position at your network.

Apparently Teresa’s honest criticism of the network got your thong and booty shorts in a knot, (what? You don’t wear those? But the videos you air show that all of colored women were those!) because you felt the need to take time from your busy job of exploiting black people, to write a letter to the Washington Post defending your exploitation of Black people.

Tampa Folks!- DON’T SUPPORT CEE-JAYs Martini Bar!!

I recieved a text message telling me to Boycott Cee-Jay’s because of racism. I thought that was crazy because Cee-Jay is black but then I saw this in my inbox, from Thatswzup.com.

Things that Disturb my Spirit

I’ve been a little “inconegro” the past few days and in a serious rut. I apologize for the lack of posts.

I felt like sharing some things that disturbed my spirit this week. You may laugh or hang your head in shame, but it is what it is.

TV Star’s Drug Arrest

CSI Actor, Gary Dourdan got popped with rock today. Cocaine that is.

Blog Game

I’ve been tagged in a blog game, so of course I have to play along. Here’s your chance to get to know me a little better.

I’m Just Being Honest-Reflections on the Sean Bell Verdict

It’s been a day or two since I’ve posted any new news or opinion pieces. Partly because the cocoa colored news has been a little slow, but mainly because I’ve been a little down since the Sean Bell verdict. I’m not from New York; I don’t know Sean Bell, his Fiancée, Nicole Paultre-Bell or anyone associated with the case and I can’t say that I was truly shocked or surprised by the verdict. And yet it has burdened my spirit.

Cops Cleared in Sean Bell Case!!!

The three Cops have been AQUITTED in the Sean Bell Case!!!!

State Supreme Court Judge Arthur Cooperman said the charges could not be proved beyond a reasonable doubt.

“Questions of carelessness and incompetence must be left to other forums,” Copperman said.

WOW!!!
I know some folks have already written their thought under my Converstation Starter post. (either post you use is fine with me)

I just want to know who will police the police??
This was not a criminal, or an armed assailant. Just a man and his friends in a car.

If I shot at someone who was unarmed because I “thought” they may do something wrong I’d go to jail.

Contrary to what Mayor Bloomberg believes this is a case about race and class. The cops involved may have been black but that doesn’t mean that they don’t stereotype against their own culture. These Black cops saw, young black males and automatically assumed they were going to do a “drive by.” that assumption isn’t right even if the one doing the stereotyping is of the same ethnicity

I’m just in shock, and worried about safety the black men in my life. whose stereotypes might put them in danger??

Who in the Hell left the Gate Open?- Daymon Wayans

Jesus PLEASE take the wheel!!!

I was not planning on letting anything interrupt my watching Jesse L. Martin’s final “Law and Order” episode, but this mess disturbed my spirit on a horrific level.
It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything from Daymon Wayans, and now he’s back with proof that he should have stopped with “My Wife and Kids.” His youtube channel features a new skit ( I’m loathe to put the word “comedy” in front of it, because ain’t dang thing funny) called “Abortion Man”.
Now it’s bad enough that this Negro and a few of his other little “comedian” friends attempted to justify the Imus comments, now he’s supporting this stupidity.
Watch this filth.

Celeb Divorce Al and Star

Oh my Poor Starlet! As we celebrate the marriages of Jay/Beyonce and Tia Mowry/ that actor guy she married, we must mourn the end of Kanye and Alexis and the newest cocoa colored celebs to call it quits Star Jones and Al Reynolds.

Ch-Ch-Changes!!

Hey Sugar Babies!
As you can see The Brown Sugar Pages has a new look. Hopefully this will be easier to read and see. I am currently struggling with learning CSS so that I can truly customize the blog, but until I get it, I hope this will do.

If you’re good with CSS or you’re interested in designing a new custom header for the current theme, holla at ya girl!
