Not only does black role models saying things like this serve to increase racism and segregation but...
Announcing her as the first black woman in Nuts does not help racism, just like going ape over Obama being the prez... it's 2009 and we still rave about this stuff... Why?
Well firstly because a lot of the UK population are racist. Secondly, because the media are needing headlines... this is how they make their money.
Yes, most of those who read nuts are racist, whether they know it or not, society breeds this behaviour... but please
don't slag off nuts whilst you gain most of your news from tabloids.. this is just so stupid it is crazy.
In real life it doesn't effect anything at all.
