First off, I detest focusing on celebrity based stories because they have a tendency to not be about much substance. But bear with me as EURweb.com's take on this next story denotes a long suffering problem that many African-Americans suffer from-White cultural fixation. And to be fair, conversely, White culture also uses race in coded language to convey messages as well. The difference, however is that this White cultural fixation comprises a great deal of the psyche and identity of Black folk preventing many people of color from looking at issues with clarity. The Jena 6 issues comes to mind.
Sorry to sound like a broken MP3 file, but our insistence at galvanizing solely against discrimination cases while our "in-house" madness overflows just appears short-sighted. Somehow taking this stance, in the eyes of some of my peers, detractors and blog readers makes me treasonous. Why? I can not answer that-but at some point if we are to stave off our excruciatingly high murder rates, a direct response in the same vein as racial cases must be implemented. Now what does this have to do with Elizabeth Taylor? Well according to some reports, she may be marrying an African-American. Perhaps the number of marriages should be called into question not the race of her latest paramour.
No big deal, right? The mainstream outlets barely reported this with the racial factor being inconsequential. Not EurWeb.com's take, hence the "jungle fever" headline. It points to fixation and it does not move us along in a cultural sense. Who cares who (or why) an elderly actress marries? Perhaps it's the vintage Hollywood iconography factor but my bet is on tribalism, primitivism and fixation. Check out this diatribe I received in our email regarding this issue:
ELIZIBITCH TAYLOR MARRIES ANOTHER BLACK MAN....
This morning, on the Tom Joyner radio show, black women claimed that the answer to white actress Elizibeth Taylor marrying a black man, was for black women to now run and get white men!!!!!!!!! !!!!!
SO, ONCE AGAIN, BLACK WOMEN ARE MADE A MOCKERY OF; AND ONCE AGAIN, BLACK WOMEN MAKE MOCKERY OF THEMSELVES!! !! AMEN!!!
BLACK WOMEN STILL REFUSE TO SAY THAT THE "SOLUTION" IS FOR THEM TO SUPPORT OUR MEN'S MOVEMENT AND OUR CHURCH FOR MEN ONLY!!!
BLACK WOMEN NEVER THINK THEY ARE DOING SOMETHING WRONG FOR SO MANY WEALTHY BLACK MEN TO BE COMMITIING RACIAL SUICIDE BY RUNNING TO ALBINO WOMEN!!!! AMEN!!!
IT'S A DAMN SHAME THAT BLACK WOMEN TAKE NO BLAME FOR THIS TREND.
YET, IT IS FURTHER PROOF OF HOW BLACK WOMEN DON'T SUPPORT THE RISE OF BLACK MEN....WHO ARE HER OWN SONS!!! AMEN!!!
AND THIS IS SIMPLY BECAUSE WHITE FEMINIST WOMEN TAUGHT BLACK WOMEN TO HATE HER OWN SONS....WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE BLACK MESSIAHS, INSTEAD OF GANGSTER RAPPERS WITH SAGGING PANTS!!!! AMEN!!!
BLACK WOMEN WERE THE FIRST TO RUN OFF TO BE WITH WHITE WOMEN; NOT BLACK MEN!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! AMEN!!!
BLACK MEN ARE ONLY DOING WHAT BLACK WOMEN DID IN THE 1970s WHEN SHE JOINED FEMINISM AND DESERTED BLACK POWER!!!! AMEN!!!
I rest my case-but for more of the actual marriage speculation, click on the link below:
