(now walk with me in this...) I was born in the 70's so I can only speak on so much from experience.. but let's have some fun...<br /><br /><a href="http://www.beatking.com/forums/uploads/post-38-1101239279.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 158px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 256px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.beatking.com/forums/uploads/post-38-1101239279.jpg" /></a>Remember in the late 60's-70's? <a href="http://www.blaxploitation.com/">Blaxplotation</a> was quite the Phenomenon. It ruled the the box office is urban cities across the nation.. and Japan... LOL Movies like Cotton Comes To Harlem, Sweet, Sweetback's Bad Ass Song, Lady Sings The Blues, Mahogany, Truck Turner, Shaft & Blacula (in my opinion the scariest movie ever). And then there were the sitcoms, The Jeffersons which were a spinoff of Archie Bunker (<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">yeah it was!</span></span>) and <a href="http://www.janetdubois.com/index.html">Ja'Net DuBois</a> who wrote and sung Moving On Up for The Jefferson's played Willona (<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="FONT-STYLE: italic; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">I always thought it was Balonia</span></span>) on Good Times! Then there was What's Happening, That's My Momma, Baby I'm Back, Sandford & Son and Get Christy Love! There were the made for TV movies like Roots that broke records that still exist today!, the Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman and The Marva Collins Story. Who could forget (what we had in the NYC Tri-State area) the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8wylZskFxE">Big Apple Movies</a> like Claudine?<br /><br />In the 80's Bill Cosby dominated NBC with the Cosby Show. Never before has America seen such <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CZQHnNORSV8/ST0mlM2n14I/AAAAAAAAFWc/KfVq_xfHPe0/s400/cosbys.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 191px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 199px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CZQHnNORSV8/ST0mlM2n14I/AAAAAAAAFWc/KfVq_xfHPe0/s400/cosbys.jpg" /></a>a satisfying picture of an African American family. Yeah, it was important for American to see... but it was far more important for Black Americans to see! We needed to see positive role models of ourselves front and center. We needed to see that there was more to life than sports and music... sports and music is fine in themselves... but they are not the only pathways to success. The 80's was also when <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtyJbIOZjS8">King of Pop</a> shed his brothers and burst out onto the scene in a mighty way.. I mean come on, the Thriller Album was a best of... LOL.. was there any song that didn't make the top 20? Ahh I still remember it like it was yesterday. My dad bought home 2 jackets.. One red & one black! Michael <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIuKhcBYoGw">danced</a>.. and so did I... In addition to Moon Walking.... we popped & we locked... We watched <a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9216094888669478564">Beat Street</a> (<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic;font-size:85%;" ><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">the whole movie</span></span>) and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17orWXn8Hb0">Krush Groove</a>(<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="FONT-STYLE: italic; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">a snippet</span></span>).<br /><br /><a href="http://www.fulvuedrive-in.com/cover/SEXJUSTICEHILLTHOMAS.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 206px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 176px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.fulvuedrive-in.com/cover/SEXJUSTICEHILLTHOMAS.jpg" /></a>Then it was the 90's. We had the <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Good</span>: The end Of Apartheid in South Africa & election of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_mandela">Nelson Mandela</a>. We had the very <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Bad</span>: The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_genocide">Rwandan Genocide</a> where approx 1,000,000 people were killed over a course of about 100 hundred days. We also had the the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Congo_War">1st Congo War</a> that ended the 32 reign of president Mobutu. 1998 was also the start of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Congo_War">2nd Congo War</a>, which aftermath left 5.4 million dead; mainly due to disease and starvation. Then there was the <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Ugly</span>: The <a href="http://www.museum.tv/archives/etv/H/htmlH/hill-thomash/hill-thomas.htm">Anita Hill & Clarence Thomas Hearing</a>, the infamous <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_King">Rodney King beating</a> & LA Riot aftermath and of course O.J. Simpson trial. <span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">(need I say more)</span></span>.<br /><br />The 90's entertainment scene was as <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/rimtifilmai/covers/boyz-n-da-hood.gif"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 170px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 236px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.freewebs.com/rimtifilmai/covers/boyz-n-da-hood.gif" /></a>diverse as the news stories. We were New Jacks in Old Schools; Spoken Word Artists & Gangsta Rappers; Bad Comedies and Great Dramas. The 1990's not only bought us more of Denzel, Samuel, Forrest and Lawrence... It introduced us to Morris, Taye, Omar, Mehki & Malik... not to be outdone by, Whitney (as-if in the acting department), Angela, Nia, and Sanaa. Not too mention how Jada, Queen, Kimberly & Vivica <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_It_Off">Set it Off</a>! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGupMBcBf5139M6yZagC3zifQSlavNUGPEcL3kB6S-Y1vfJ2V2F7BRNgf_Pb8L18jmR5QDIaGLqPF7C0xInzGtg3OE40AdumkeZyCkl4AIB61126RAsz5rQUrRQEtgN-gqBHqtpgIUxmd9/s1600-h/Set_it_off.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 136px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404407838727334162" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGupMBcBf5139M6yZagC3zifQSlavNUGPEcL3kB6S-Y1vfJ2V2F7BRNgf_Pb8L18jmR5QDIaGLqPF7C0xInzGtg3OE40AdumkeZyCkl4AIB61126RAsz5rQUrRQEtgN-gqBHqtpgIUxmd9/s200/Set_it_off.jpg" /></a>Martin made us laugh on & off of the camera.. while Mary J... kept it rolling... "were all of her songs hits?!" Kirk showed us that we could keep our religion and still praise the Lord.. While MaryMary showed us how to do it with lady-like style. We have<a href="http://www.impawards.com/1996/posters/set_it_off.jpg"></a> experience victory and defeat. We have been from soup to nuts and all in between. ALL of the years we have experienced cycles of exposure on many fronts: Political, News, Sports, Fashion, Education, Entertainment, Religion, Science, Business, Military, etc.<br /><br />Being a Black woman, wife, mom, citizen I never really feel out of style.. but there are times when I and really proud and uplifted.. Like when a really good movie is created, or a great speech is given, or a great stride made that reflects good on my race.. it's good for me, it's good for us, it's good for all.<br /><br />-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />-11/14/09<br />I never finished this piece but alas I had it in draft for over a year. I wrote it after the election win for now, President, Barack Obama. So much has happened since then, the passing of Eartha Kitt, Pres Obama taking office, more recession, death of a king: Michael Jackson to say the least...

I'm hungry!" or better yet, it's not about "Hey MA! Tell 'so & so" to stop hitting me!" This is about the more sensual side of being called "Ma". When the grown and sexy use it between each other.<br /><br />Look, every ethnic group has their terms of endearments. We all do it... some more than others (smirk). Some I think are cute like "Hey Mommy!" or "Aye Poppy" LOL. However there are others I loathe like "My old lady/man" blah!<br /><br />It's wonderful (to me) to hear grown man call his woman "Boo"... "Hey Boo, just called to see if you need anything" or " I missed you Boo"<br /><br /><a href="http://comps.fotosearch.com/comp/BLD/BLD022/african-american-man_~BLD040575.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 129px; HEIGHT: 129px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://comps.fotosearch.com/comp/BLD/BLD022/african-american-man_~BLD040575.jpg" /></a><br />My all time favorite is "Ma".I 1st recalled hearing it when a dear childhood friend responded on Facebook to this picture that my husband had taken of me.<br /><br /><a href="http://hphotos-snc1.fbcdn.net/hs155.snc1/5780_1211434205442_1216375047_598834_5995679_n.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 224px; HEIGHT: 365px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://hphotos-snc1.fbcdn.net/hs155.snc1/5780_1211434205442_1216375047_598834_5995679_n.jpg" /></a><br />He said "Looking good Ma". Honestly, I had never been called that by a grown man, and my husband calls me Boo (which I adore).... but this was new. It evoked feelings of sexiness (no, not toward my friend) but just in general. I was warm and satisfying and I liked it.<br /><br /><br />I even had a girlfriend call me "Ma" and it was cute in a "honey-child" "girlfriend" sort of way.<br /><br /><a href="http://comps.fotosearch.com/comp/BNS/BNS200/girlfriends-having-drink_~BUD056.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 143px; HEIGHT: 126px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://comps.fotosearch.com/comp/BNS/BNS200/girlfriends-having-drink_~BUD056.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Some of my other favorite warm and fuzzy words:<br /><br />Heavenly Father<br />Family<br />The Obamas<br />Love<br />Honey<br />Rhythm<br />Endless<br />Forever<br />Safe<br />Financially Secured (hahaha)<br /><br />What word evokes pleasure in you? What do you like to be called? What gets you going and why?<br /><br />That Girl, AngThat Girl Anghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01429893913232694382noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659859112913421124.post-13899077911693754542009-11-05T08:53:00.004-05:002009-11-05T09:47:29.085-05:00Who Loves You Baby?

So much is happening in my life that I had to make a decision. I decided to choose life, love life & live life... not merely exist. I've been on the sidelines long enough, I desire to participate. So, I hope you will enjoy the ride... or you can just sit back & watch the rest of us ride by. Whatever your choice, be a willing participant not a victim.

Listening to "Show You the Way to Go" by The Jacksons, it suddenly dawns on me that I have 2 blogs in process that I need to complete and publish. One is "What Obama Can't Fix" which is a satirical look at the suggestions & downright demands put on this man before he even hits the door.... & the other is "Black In Style" a look at our style, music, pop culture & yes, progress over the pass 40 years... ~ Both, I figure, are very interesting reads, but I will let you tell me.... eventually... LOL<br /><br />However are a precursor to Black in Style, I would like to post a couple of stylish pictures of my hubby & I at his high school reunion. He picked out my dress.. Everyone seem to get a kick out of that fact.. and I don't mind tellin' it either! Hey, it's his class reunion...
