Why I Love Black Women

Why I Love Black Women

DAVID JOHNSON · Sunday, January 6th 2013 at 1:31PM · 859 views
Michael Eric Dyson celebrates the strength and beauty of African-American women. From Miss James, his grammar school teacher, to Linda Johnson Rice, who heads the communications empire that publishes Ebony and Jet; from Toni Morrison, whose novels inspired him, as a young welfare dad, to Debbie Bethea, the housecleaner whose labors remind him of his mother in Detroit; from civil rights widow Myrlie Evers-Williams to activist and scholar Angela Davis-and many more-the women in Dyson's pantheon inspire us to remember, "When we love black women, we love ourselves, and the God who made us."

Hello to All,

Loving the women of your own kinds is suppose to be inborn or innate and therefore it shouldn’t have to be encourage or a reason why Black men should love Black American women.

Right now Prof. Dyson seems some what ignorant not to know and understand what I just said am I right.

What do you think David since you alleges that you have some sort of a brain?

And Cynthia, let's not forget the words Harry used to show his inborn love for you on the land mass blog! Harry is a misogynist.

All of you all are stupid asses and this is why!

I said that it should not be a thing that you have to encourage Black American men to love Black American women because it is an inborn thing unless something when wrong in the lives of all Black American people. We all know that plantation slavery affect our race in a mental way big-time that God is now handling to make us normal human beings.

So, focus on what I said if it is wrong then show where I am wrong, but please stop the mockery. How you stop the mockery is to stop focusing on me. Focus on the message and not the messenger. There will be time enough to focus on the messenger later.

The hell with me idiots focus on the things that I say and determine for yourselves if what I am saying is right and something you can go by.

This is a new year! Are you all not going to change your stupid ways?

DAVID JOHNSON Sunday, January 6th 2013 at 11:05PM

Cynthia Merrill Artis Sunday, January 6th 2013 at 11:15PM
