B is getting slack over some blackface photos she took for a french mag. Im african american and i think we need to let stuff like that go. A painted black face does not always mean something racial and we as a people should not be offended. There are greater injustices for all people we should get worked up about. Has anyone seen these gas prices. Also if we as a people are up in arms about a black face on a black person, should we be mad at her Hubby Jay-Z who refers to himeself as JIGGA.
Should we continue to be sensative to these things?
What do you think?

Im so african american i'm not a big beyonce fan like i use to be, but nothing she did was racial she was trying to be a african queen and in africa there are rael people there that have her type of shad they had to make her darker. Its so crazy cause if she did the same pics with her normal skin tone they would say she was being races for not dakeing her skin she is black also its not like they mad her white as an african queen.

Hi. awashi02. We should not see it in this way though. But you know how some ignorant and childlike minded people think and feel. It is nothing wrong with being different at all. As long as Beyonce was not being racially ignorant then her photo should not be discussed. I agree, JIGGA isn't too much of a positive thing either. People should just stop hating on Beyonce. I am sure that she is not the only music artist or celebrity that has done something drastically different that has made many eyes pop out of their sockets.
