Just an Opinion: Raven Symone NOT BLACK ENOUGH FOR YOU...?


Here are my thoughts on Miss Symone.

1. She has been in the public eye since before she could remember.
She IS most likely tired of both labels and the spotlight but still enjoys working as an actress.


2. I blame parents for not just Ms. Symone's dis connect but many children and now young adults I come across. Their parents did not define and share what it means to be Black.
There were no sharing of Roots and Malcolm X ...so that now we have adults that believe the struggle is not having an iPhone 6.

3. When you do not have parents that have defined being Black.
The media has no problem defining Black as crude hip hop videos, crime on the news and the real housewife shows.

If those are how you see Black as opposed to Maya, Coretta, Ossie?
Then I would not honestly run to call myself Black either.

4. I believe in time Ms. Symone will realize that over all the problem is an America thing and not a Black Thing.


5. This IS America...and she has every RIGHT to not want to be Black. And not wanting to be Black IS Part of The Black Experience as well...
