Okay..... this story has been aired nationally and the more 'enlightened' African Americans came together to stop this 'coonery" from appearing on a National network Reality TV show.
Well... "big ups" to Black Civil Rights Activist 'Sabrina Lamp' started a petition to stop "Shawty Lo's " All Baby Mama's show from going on the air on the 'Oxygen Network.'
So recently the tables where turned on this absolute "Coonery".
{ Victory! After over 37,000 people signed Sabrina Lamb's petition asking Oxygen to drop their offensive "All My Babies' Mamas" reality show, the network announced it will not be moving forward with plans for the show.
"Your support of our coalition's petition means that this moment in television history is your shared victory. Please never forget the power that you have to lobby to create value in the world. Your overwhelming support has been heartfelt. I have read each of your emails before they were delivered to the CEO of NBC/UNIVERSAL/COMCAST. Our Coalition determines our next steps, please stand by. United...we can never be defeated."
A coalition of groups joined Sabrina's fight -- the Parents Television Council, Rap Rehab, Industry Ears, Black Men in America, Mo' Kelly and Ulysses Slaughter. After rumors of a cancellation surfaced, Oxygen refused to confirm the show's demise for days, finally bowing to pressure after Sabrina hand-delivered 37,000 signatures to Oxygen's NYC office, and other members of the coalition delivered the signatures to Oxygen's LA office and Comcast's Philadelphia headquarters.}
Now here is the newest update that Rapper 'Shawty Lo" has done it again despite having a 19 year old girlfriend. She is a Clemson University graduate female rapper labeled "Jai Jai" who by rumor is 5-6 months pregnant and featured in the blog photo attached.
Now I don't know about you because I signed that petition and the entire affair has Jake heated.
What is the "Community" going to do by work not words to reverse these ugly societal trends among an segment of the so-called black community...
What is your role other than talking about the issues???????????
