OlderAdrianne Curry: Ban Black History Month (Part Deux)
Former America’s Next Top Model Adrianne Curry is back for more after her very controversial “Ban Black History Month and BET” rant. Here is her “rebuttal” via her MySpace:
“Rebuttal to my Black History blog
Yep, I gotta try to clarify a few things here.
Firstly, I just want to apologize for how random my thoughts were in my last blog. I wrote what I did just minutes after a long heated discussion on the topic. I can hardly read the thing, it’s so damn random!
I think it is HORRIBLE that people misunderstood my message. Just because I wanted to stop separating races, doesn’t mean I want to STOP TEACHING HISTORY! Or schools need to teach MORE of ALL of it anyway! I was asking that we not name things to separate ourselves. I never claimed we shouldn’t learn our own history, or that of all the other countries on earth (which we as Americans are pretty bad at). I am very aware of all the amazing things hat black people have done for our country, and we should always be aware of it. However, separating our races sounds like racism to me. It just does. So go ahead, claim I am the one who is ignorant for wanting us all to be EQUAL! Can you believe that? How does that make a f***ing lick of sense? Honor your heritage, I know I do. Just make sure that by doing so, you do not seperate yourself from the rest of us! Black History to me would be everything that happened in AFRICA. I lived there for almost 5 months. Visted Robin Island, and saw the cell they held Nelson Mandela in. I witnesses first hand people calling these taxi vans “Black Taxis” and these nice taxi’s “white taxis”. Just vile.THAT is African(black if you will) history. African AMERICAN history is OUR history!

Adrianne Curry: “Boycott Black History Month!”
Yes, there was a time when racism ran rapid. It still does in some places. However, it is time for us to rise above it and BECOME ONE, instead of SOME. I wrote my last blog in such hurry and a fury because I felt what I was typing so deeply. I am appalled that anyone would claim I am just some stupid white b**** that doesn’t know s*** about anything. I did NOT grow up rich. I did NOT hang out with rich people. Watch the show “Roseanne” and you tell ME if that family seemed well off. That is just about where I came from. My family is blue collar all the way! Just because I worked hard to get where I am it means I don’t know how hard it is to LIVE LIFE? I was addicted to drugs, raped, abused, beaten, etc. I DO NOT DWELL ON IT! I choose to rise above it! I have been beaten up for being “the white girl” a few times, so don’t tell me I don’t know how it feels to be discriminated against.
My message about trying to rise above segregation, separation, and racism has been twisted. Some people are saying I am RACIST for wanting all races to embrace each other! You’re a f***ing dumbass if that is what you think! Again, let me make this clear, I DO NOT SUPPORT THE SEPERATION OF RACE IN THIS COUNTRY, ANY RACE. I DO NOT SUPPORT CHANELS OR FUNDS THAT SEPARATE RACE, HENCE ADDING TO RACISM! I never claimed to STOP teaching history that involves black people, I asked to STOP BEING RACIST BY SEPERATING GROUPS BY RACE! Truly educate yourselves on the true definition of segregation.
I enjoy sharing my thoughts here. Some people like it, and some people don’t. I come from an incredibly political family. (I am a Democrat). I enjoy a heated debate. I didn’t mean to “single out” only the black months/funds/channels. It was more of an example of how NO RACE should attempt to separate itself in such a way that ADDS to the problem with racism. Stop singling people out, and maybe…just maybe, the future will be full of people that were NEVER raised thinking people are so different because of their skin.
I wrote about what I did because I care. It makes me physically ill knowing that there are people that are still so closed minded out there that they hate someone because of their skin. My hope is that one day we will all wonder how anyone could have done that. I think that we need to teach MORE history in our schools. Of course, even more world history. I also think we should be more aware of what is happing in other countries. Of everywhere I have been on Earth, America shows the least news on what’s happing outside our “world”.
This felt good. I feel like I have got my point across better this time. I need to learn to relax on my impulse and calm down before I share. ; ) My Boo always tells me that. Thanks for listening.”

still stupid
I don’t care if she’s racist or not…Just SHUT.UP, you fug bimbo.
Amen!!!
Please it stop already!!!
Poor Tyra, if only she knew what kind of idiot this famew*hore was she never would have won ANTM.
Oh Adrianne, SHUT UP ALREADY.
Oh she is fug, she stole ANTM from Shannon. She clearly didn’t deserve it and her lack of work proves my point.
firsttttt.
spank me baby!
Yeah she needs to just shut up. I dont even want to get on my soap box.
What exactly did she clarify!? That she is even more ignorant then originally stated. I mean c’mon she has no education, she is an ex drug addict famous for basically being a hoe and marrying a kid from The Brady Bunch. I value not one thing she says. Laughable! Carry on…
i agree with many of her comments i just do not agree with the qay she went about it
wait she says we shouldn’t be separate, and then she turns around, and says honor your heritage? what the hell is she really saying? it sounds like she doesn’t know her ass from a hole in the ground!
whatever, she is full of sh*t! the reason why she changed her mind, and what the hell she said is because on her MYSPACE, people were dogging her out! (CLICK ON THE NAME TO SEE IT)I see that she did not once mention BET, so of course she changed it! And just because you grew up poor, doesn’t mean that she is racist! BHM isn’t bothering anyine, it is honoring DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, and all of the other people that have died, trying to make sure that we as black people have equal rights. It has nothing to do with separation, untill some white people stop thinking that they are suprior to black people racism will never end!
isn’t racist!
Still clueless on what it means to be a member of a minority, or the part that racism plays in harming the hearts and minds of their children. Clueless in the fact that pride is important for the survival of cultures that are being depressed by the white majority. There is an old saying that she needs to try. “Walk a mile in their shoes.” And that is not accomplished by living in Africa for five months as an outsider/one of the privileged.
I am white but have lived as a member of a minority, and I can see the problem from both sides. But let me say that I have more empathy for the minorities than I do the “just ignore it/get over it” crowd. Just as an abused child has problems “getting over” the abuse when they become adults, abused people (including the Jewish) have a problem getting past the injustices they have suffered; and in some cases still have ways they are not “equal” to the majority group. And although it is not always “whites” that impose this abuse and injustice to others, in this country (and other colonized lands) it has been the Europeans that have destroyed the original cultures. JMHO
let this fcuking lame go back into obscurity! she’s running her fingers for this reason only - attention.
its a real sucker move to post everything she writes on her myspace page. i hope this will be the last we hear/read about her.
lol actually now that everytime i see her picture all i can do is laugh cuz she’s so damn pathetic!!
ho
Just a mess up fool. She needs to shut the hell up and end her career already. She should just go. The damage is done.
HAHA DAMAGE CONTROL!!
I think that she is stupid! Her boycott against BET, I hope BET sues her ass!
I kind of agree with her in alot of ways although I can see both sides of the story. I am also a little tired of racism from anyone who uses it. Either you are an American or you are not. It is not Latino-American, African-American, Scottish-American, Asian-American, we are ONE America that exists far better multi-culturally than any other country in the world. I honor my heritage by cooking ethnic meals and by reading about it to further mine and my family’s own knowledge. My wise father used to say, “if you have to keep talking or bragging on something then you don’t really own it”.
Why anyone would even listen to her is beyond me.
She needs to stop talking and start reading.
I love that she’s now trying to dig herself out of the grave with the new blog.
the lying b*tch also claims to be a rape survivor, drug addict and says she was molested as a child but ‘got over it.’ Firstly, when you claim to be a victim of something on a website, then you’re f*cking lying for attention and sympathy
I wish someone would put a c*ck in her mouth and keep it there so she’d shut the f*ck up on further topics she knows f*ck all about. Would someone please send a virus to her computer.
You Go Girl!! I like this girl! So intelligent! Morgan Freeman says the concept of a month dedicated to black history is “ridiculous.” at the interview with CBS “60minutes”.
He also said “the only way to get rid of racism is to “stop talking about it. I am going to stop calling you a white man and I’m going to ask you to stop calling me a black man,”
Stop talking about it, after all we are all different and are in the same planet. This is girl is damn right!
She’;s a stupid cuntrag!
O.K., the first time I read about her boycotting Black History Month, I could not stop laughing from how stupid her argument was but this second part makes it all the more funny. Why should Black History Month only include what happened in Africa?? As African-Americans, most do not know where they are from in Africa so they have no ties to any particular area other than knowing they are from somewhere on the western coast. Black History Month symbolizes the struggles that African Americans have overcome and are still struggling with. Come on, it is the shortest month and one of the coldest months in the year, throw us a freaking bone here! It wouldn’t make sense to have White History Month because one, they are not an oppressed people and secondly, it would just sound wrong! She should really stick with what she knows, smiling for the pretty birdy behind the camera!
WTF?!!! She didn’t clarify sh!t.
Still stupid. Black History month does honor our heritage. I don’t think Africa has anything to with Black history in America. That all changed when Black people were brought here as slaves. As far as I am concerned our history is all over and the woman is still an idiot.
“our”!?! LOVE ANGELINA’s BLACK?!? WTF! cant be.. aint no black women that crazy. lmao
I understand what she is trying to get at. But she is going about it in the wrong way. And it is making her look like a total jacka$%. Before she decides to boycott something. She needs to get her fact right. And that is all I am going to say about her and her lame boycott.
“Black History to me would be everything that happened in AFRICA.”
What the hell is that sentance??? This just proves that Adrienne Curry is a BIGGER schmock than I first thought!
NO B*TCH, Black History month is about all of the BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS that Black people put in this country and were NEVER recognize!
Black History is for us to remember the Heroes who have been neglected because they are black, while you PRAISE the SYPHILLIS, Gonhorrea, stink C*ck LOWLIFE Christopher Columbus after he and his GOONS slaughtered the American Indians. Columbus NEVER discovered America! How can you discover a place that is already inhabited??
Black History is for the Hundreds of Thousands of Africans who were thrown off the boats when they were too heavy, when they were disobedient or when they had to be thought a lesson. If one was thrown over, tens and twenties drowned at a time.
I am saddened that this C*NT was able to even go to Africa and instead of becoming a human being, she decides to be a racist opportunist!
Why can’t this garbage O.D. already? B*tch is taking up space!
Just goes to show, any tool with a computer can think they are smart.
ADRIENNE WILL NEVER GET IT!!
P.S. I am really hoping that her Jewish man would get himself a lynching, let’s see what this ***** will have to say.. I notice that people never seem to get things unless it happens to them.
shes a racist *****. thats pretty obvious here! she didnt even clarify anything
Omigosh number 34!! i cant beleive how racist u are! i am a ”white person’ and i am ashamed to be after what you just said! you feel bad for the ’select few intelligent black people’??!?! u need to crawl outta the rock you live under! this is 2007! not the 1960’s! get over your racism! your comment actually disgusts me.
your parents must be so proud
@ #32
Everything this woman is saying is all shades of wrong!
All it would take is education.
#1 If Adrienne could get the American government to teach real history to the students, then there would be no need for black history.
#2 BET was created decades ago to showcase African american talent that was otherwise not seen on TV. I literally have about 50 Spanish Language channels (even Spanish HBO).. I also have Russian, Hindi, Korean, and Arabic channels. I sometimes peruse them looking for similarities and wondering if I could figure out what they are saying..
Doesn’t this slag realize that it is our differences that make us who we are? What kind of society would we have if all black people sounded alike or if we ate the same things or thought like “AMERICANS” whatever that means? There would be no creativity, no room for emerging evolution…
If Adrienne were sincere, she would ask for ACCEPTENCE.. FOR US TO RESPECT EACHOTHER. Instead she is looping on Stereotypes created by a RACIST order! Adrienne is another member of white society that has fallen victim to JIM CROW!
Why is anyone giving this VERMIN an outlet to spread her bile?
Ya know, I was born and raised in Africa…South Africa to be precise. The Apartheid regime has completely reversed…but I cannot excuse what Simon van der Stel and his cronies did.Honestly, as cliched as this sounds, my true hero is Madiba (Nelson Mandela). Dr Chris Barnard performed the first heart transplant so I have much respect for the work he did and the hours he spent pouring over Medical Journals. One difference: Madiba is black and Dr Barnard was white. Madiba enrolled in home-study university and became a lawyer - all the whole sitting in Robben Island and Poolsmoor prison. I take ny hat off to him.
Dr Barnard was priveleged to be have funding provided for his medical degree.
Once Madiba was releasrd from prison, almost EVERY SINGLE black person believed that Mr. Mandela would find then jobs and luxury housing at the drop of the hat.
I am saying that this black and white issue has become waaaaay out of control.
My house has been broken into FIVE times, four while I was home! Luxkily I had Armed Response on my speed dial.I felt guilty…thought I was becoming a racist, but seriously, unless you live in Africa for an extended period of time, please just remember that it’s not always black and white.
Oh, BTW, I’m a white woman in my mid-twenties and my hubby was only here for one of the break-ins.
I say screw it all and have a “UNITED States of America” day.
Adrianne sweetheart… you NEED to learn a few things in life that might not have much to do w/ black history.. You need to always think twice before you do/say anything.
I happen to be african… To live in africa for a mere 5 months and say something this ignorant and unbelievably stupid is more of a reflection of you than anything else…
“I witnesses first hand people calling these taxi vans “Black Taxis” and these nice taxi’s “white taxis”. Just vile.THAT is African(black if you will) history. African AMERICAN history is OUR history!”.
I lived in Africa for 19 years and the history, culture, tradition, beauty is immesurable. That said, there are many ugly things too.
Do NOT make judgement on africa based on remanants of colonization you chose to pick on your short visit. How dare you say “THAT is African”?
Educate yourself sista! That said…. I don’t think 1 month a year dedicated to black history is too much to ask. I don’t celebrate it, but it doesn’t affect me that it means something to someone else. Then why are there Xmas and all those religious holidays and yet all Americans are not Xtian? I don’t celebrate them either but you don’t hear muslims saying Xmas should be banned.
Learn to have differences in life instead of lighting a fire.
She should have stopped while she was still behind… An ass of herself - the picture is getting clearer the more she ’speaks’ ‘blogs’ - shut up all ready!
i see all the intellectual and educated, ahem, adults are back. showing their wisdom and high word usage. NOT! i see mostly childish potty mouths, who need to brush their teeth with tidy bowel. real adults can hold interesting debates, without using such vulgar words. see, here’s the thing. anyone can have their own opinion. doesn’t make them wrong and doesn’t make them right either. it is their own opinion and america has assured everyone, their right to have their own. i don’t take in to any consideration, comments with childish rants and raves. where i have to hold my nose, so i don’t have to deal with such potty mouth comments. and again, this is my opinion.
she’s an idiot. Africa in a continent not a country. How is South African history relevant for someone not from South Africa. It’s like saying all Americans should know Candian history because it’s part of North Americans. Moron shut-up.
magnus is a @sshole, ignore his racist ass! obviously he is one of those wimpy b*stards that hides behind his computer, and grins in the black man face! His true intentions are that of a racist! Adrianne didn’t have it right, she isn’t right, and magnus you are barking up the wrong tree, hick, you don’t want to start sh*t that your p*ssy ass is going to run from! I feel bad for the White people that are not racist, because this @sshole just set your race back a couple of years with his vile sh*t! I hate to break it to you MAGNUS, but not all white people are smart, and they can be dumb just like anyone else, another color, so dummy go back to the drawing board, and make sure that it is BLACK!
You children do realize? That using cuss words, doesn’t make you an adult. An adult can get a job and apartment. They meet someone and get married and have children. They pay their bills on time and put food in the cupboards. Clothes on their and their children’s backs. Have one or two cars parked in front of their house. They usually work nine to five and pick up a paycheck. Or, go to college and have a career. They go on vacations, after earning vacation pay and time. They send their children to school and teach them to be responsible adults. They make house, car, and insurance payments. Plus, they pay taxes, and or capital gains and house and property tax.
I gotta say, as a minority myself, I do agree with the jist of what she is saying. Sometimes focusing only on the differences that different races and cultures have, only causes more problems. By emphasizing how different you are because of your race only helps to reinforce racism because you are separating yourself from everyone else who is not of your race. I know that I certainly don’t want to focus on how different I am supposed to be because of my color. Sure, there are cultural things that I relate to but I don’t need it to play into EVERY aspect of my life. We are all people who bleed the same color and we have one planet that we need to share. If we looked at ourselves as global citizens the world would be a very different place.
you have to care magnus! I know that this is the only rise that you can get..ok now you can go to back to your cage like a good mutt!
and it isn’t just my month, it is EVERYBODY MONTH whether you like it, or not! Whereever you work at, you celebrate it! Now that is funny for a racist like you! This isn’t a problem, you are the problem to your own people! While others are trying to say that we shouldn’t have racism in the world, you are saying the opposite!
So I think that you are one twisted c*nt, and what you say hick really doesn’t amount to a hill of beans! Keep trucking!
By the way, even though I did just say that I agree with her overall argument, I have nothing against BET or Black History Month. The history of all the people who came to America should be taught and remembered. I just agree that we need to stop separating ourselves from each other so much and realise that underneath the skin color we are the same.

Nobody but black people even notice when it’s black history month anyway.
Your poverty stricken upbringing has nurtured you into a magnificent example of typical black America.
You like to ***** and barf out sound bites but when it comes down to it there isn’t a real thought in your head.
Black n proud…hell your name is even racist.
Why can’t you be proud of something else?
Answer: because you have nothing else. If you’re not proud to be black you’re just out of options.
Do yourself a favour and do something with your life that you can be proud of. Being proud of your race is a f*cking joke.
magnus
if only black people paid attention to BHM, we wouldn’t be having this discussion! BOY O BOY are you stupid!
White people are proverty stricken also, what about trailer trash, farmhands, hill billies, they are also proverty stricken, you are not making any sense…meth addict!
i don’t think mt name is racist, I am black and proud of my heritage, so you can shove it!
and you never asked me what I am proud of, How do you know that I am not proud of anything else? Your attempt to assume that I am not proud of anything else was totally off, so try again dummy!
You can’t tell me about myself, You are not a physic, you are not me, so you can save your typical white man speech, because you are a stupid jack@ss!
And of course a hick like you would say something like that, Because you have nothing to be proud of, you are a loner that has issues, why don’t you just kill yourself right now, and then it would be one less prick that we would have just walken over anyway! I know that you get walke dover constantly, your true colors came through over the cyber world! LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOo at you! back to the cage now, stinkin mutt!
walked over…
piece of dog sh*t! You shouldn’t take pride in saying we done anything, you are a joke, and you are making your race sound like a joke!
does that MFA stands for MUTHAF*CKIN @SSHOLE? it should!
she’s such a dumbass… nobody would even be listening to what this ***** was saying if a BLACK WOMAN didn’t give her a career. it’s amazing.. but you know what, the 11 other months out of the year have holidays devoted to celebrating everyone else and all of our white presidents. hell black history month is even shared with two WHITE presidents. she needs to get over herself, and i mean even our MLK day in January is a CIVIL RIGHTS day for EVERY race.
41 N> couldn’t have said it better myself!! her stupidity just puts me at a loss of words.
this is like the divide between the blacks and whites regarding the OJ case. Majority of blacks said OJ innocent and cheered his verdict regarding the murder of his wife. A majority of whites looked like they were gob smacked when the verdict came down. They couldn’t bleive he got away with it. Regarding racism - I think the blacks keep it going much more than whites. Bet if you surveyed this board you would have a majority of blacks saying she is talking through her rear end and a majority of whites saying what she says has a lot of merit.

LMAO! What the HELL are you talking about??? Your post has nothing to do with this thread topic. And please, stop trying to preach. Get off your high horse, tuts, because adults can use cuss words and it doesn’t make them any less “adult”.
Africa’s history = Black History??? Um, no. She sounds dumber than she did yesterday. She needs to stop posting this crap before she makes a bigger fool out of herself (if that’s possible).
Oh my God, just shut up!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, I think she made a point there.
***** really needs to shut the **** up. She does not know what she is talking about.
Does she not know that its spelled “CHANNEL” and not “CHANEL”? Stupid ho!!
@Guyshia:

Watch and shut the **** up.
i totally get what she means…
to those who doesn’t…too bad!
she was just merely expressing her thoughts on her blog….not advocating them…just like how we always have this mind game with ourselves!
blog is a place where u can rant to yourself and to others who might want to share their views with the thinker….
That’s why there’s a thing called, “Think before you say” You dumb ****. I think you need to learn it, live it and love it. The things that come out of your mouth make you look like an idiot. I remember you when you were on America’s next top model…didn’t like you then and especially don’t like you now.

@Point: Totally agree with you!
I live in a country where it’s perfectly okay to celebrate our diversity. We celebrate everything - the Indian Diwali Festival of Lights, the Chinese Lantern Festival, Scottish Festival, the Maori and Pacific Island Festival, Latina Festival, the Taste of Africa Festival, Night of the Poms (English Festival), Jambalaya Festival (African), Festival of Irish Culture (centred around St Patricks Day), FrenchFest etc etc…although we’re all proudly unique in our cultures and way of life, we are still one nation under God! We enjoy and have a taste of the cuisine, fashion, music, art, languages, customs and traditions that each culture has brought to our country. We embrace the diversity as it has enriched our lives (and our pantries)! We like our multicultural country…we’re one people…just different colours that’s all! Peace…
hey guess what!

God DAMN you’re f*cking stupid.
No wonder all you have to be proud of is your race (which makes you a genuine RACIST!!!!!!!).
Just like the month you love so much.
Hence this whole session of me making you look like a f*cking tool.
so should we cancel hispanic heritage month as well?
stupid *****.
She needs to just shut up and read some books and try to educate herself. He grammar is atrocious, she knows nothing about history and doesn’t her computer at least have spell-check? I might forgive her all that if I thought she was just dumb but there is dumb and there is stupid! She is really stupid and she IS racist! And oh yeah-I’m white and very ashamed to even read a rant like that! What a *****. Trailer trash!!
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what she’s saying, I’ve read the 2 comments that she made, and some of the comments made by the readers here and on her MySpace, and honestly I don’t see the problem is or why it has generated such rage towards her comment…
I think she actually has a good point, and I say this maybe from a more objective point of view because I don’t live in the US anymore. I´ve traveled a lot, and I have never been in a country where racism is so palpable as it is in the United States.Racism starts when you signal someone else as “different”, even when you’re doing it presumably for the good reasons, the simple fact that you’re separating people, categorizing them, is racist, because by doing so, you’re denying that we are all equals. And I think that was her point, maybe with a bad example, but a valide point after all, because once you’ve live outside the US, and have seen that those categorizations are not often found in other countries, you realize why most americas are often called racists, no matter their colors or features.
well magnus it should stand for muthaf*ckin @sshole! that is what you are, and that name fits you well!
blah blah blah
yeah, i know that you are jealous of my race, and that is all that you can say..Ok we get it..some beautiful black woman..broke your scrawny heart, well GOOD FOR HER! So now you are bitter as they come, babe go suck on hog malls..because your sh*t stink!
and you are a tool! dumb@ss! I hope that you don’t think that you sound highly educated, because I hate to break it to you, you sound like the dumb white trash that you are! NEXT!
Magnus, you’re the tool. You thought only black ppl were poverty stricken, how foolish are you?
Stupid ass *****! It is Robben Island and not Robin Island and visiting the cell where Nelson Mandela was held, doesn’t teach you **** about Africa. This girl should be put away for being stupid and ignorant.
People, people you all need to calm down. First of all one should not be degraded based on the level of education. Whether or not she graduated college she has the right to speak her mind, afterall, we have free speech in this country. Secondly, whether she was able to state her opinions properly or not, the bottom line is, she’s only stating that seperation should not exists between all americans, whether you are white, black, asian, hispanics or whatever the color of your skin is. In our country the seperation exists because we choose to divide our races. Why do we need to say someone is black african american, asian america, mexican american? Seriously, if you are born in the U.S. or have been naturalized then you are american and the United States is your country and home.Period.
The jokes on all of you people responding to her (including me). That you are actually taking her seriously enough to respond. Next week she’ll talk about religion and we will all have another heated discussion about that because we all know her opinion matters.
It is naive to say “we are all the same under the skin” when racism is MIND SET. It is LEARNED, it is PASSED DOWN, and in many cases, it is ACCEPTABLE. Adrienne, and others, can say they want America to be united all they want but it does not change what this country was founded upon. The same way a house will fall apart if built on sand, America was founded off the backs of minorities who were torn down and abused, mentally, physically, sexually and emotionally to justify why whites treated us all like less than dogs.
If you are anti-racist, practice it and pass THAT down to your children and grandchildren, preach it and live it, but don’t make statements like the ignorant and naive ones Adrienne made, statements born from her white privilege (which she was because if she had gone further in her modeling career, she would have received many, many, many more assignments and opportunities than minority models–a problem that was why Tyra founded ANTM!!), a privilege that allows her to walk into a store and not be tailed or given a snooty look. A privilege that allows her husband to drive practically anywhere he chooses without fear of police pulling him over because he is black or latino. A privilege that allows her to live in a penthouse and not assumed to be the maid by the doorman. A privilege that allows all of the white Presidential candidates to be treated like men and not like a “black candidate” the way Barack Obama is.
My main issue with her is that she stirred to the pot of “who had it worse”, which is a common tactic of bigots, whether they are aware of it or not (which she doesn’t seem to be considering the idiotic statement that she dated a black guy and two black girls e.e).

Sorry but it still sounds like the first time to me, the young person is clearly not understanding that we know that the problem still exists and that other countries are quite different, I lived in Germany 8 years and I loved it and except for the concept that some white americans gave the Germans it was great. They said (white americans)black people had tails and were painted black for war times or something like that. Clearly you have to walk in someone shoes to understand what they go thru in life. Pray for her to receive some Godly guidance in the future.
Education is a prerequisite. We can in no way equate the injustices in Africa to what has happened to African Americans here in the United States. The United States has its own rich history of injustices toward individuals of color. Namely: Black or African-Americans. I will not forget. Nor will anyone of color. As in my first post, if any individual of color or otherwise feel that they are not being properly heard. Speak up. Let your voice be heard. We have a presidential election coming up. Now is the time to express yourselves. Becoming active in causes that celebrate and bring equality for all individuals.
Listening or reading Ms. Curry’s thoughts and opinions is an example of the ignorance and mis-education that still exists.
I just can’t believe this woman. Let her go tell Univision that there shouldn’t be Univsion for Latinos, go tell Zee TV, that they shouldn’t be on for Asians. What an ignorant ***** who speaks through her ass.
Well…..I actually know where she´s coming from.
Now please don´t act like saints here…..

I love Adrian. She’s definately not a racist, but honestly she should just stay out of anything political. Too much drama involved!
This chick didnt even finish high school! why care what she has to say? who is she? and who cares?!
If this is the only way she can keep her name in the limelight than thats sad!

Shut up Adrienne.
LOL, this is a girl that did not wanted to be disrespected by her b/f on TV because her father was watching but yet she had no issue’s of her father watchin the show and watching his daughter perform S&M on her b/f. She is a headcase.
Black N Proud aka Move B*tch aka Aunt Jemimia is such a joke.

24.7% of Black people in America live in poverty. That’s the highest percentage by race of any first world country anywhere. So you are the f*cking tool you stupid c*nt.
I don’t even care about this month. I’m not even American.
It’s nice to see the other side of the coin though when I see some stupid white woman shoot her mouth off.
It’s also fun to poke the cage with you stupid pr*cks. It’s okay for me to do it too because it’s a part of Northern culture. lol
Racism! It’s not just for white people anymore!
I AGREE WITH POST :13 MOVE *******, UNTIL WHITES STOP THINKING THEY ARE BETTER THAN BLACKS RACISM WILL ALWAYS EXIST. PLUS DUMB ASS ***** BLACK PEOPLE WANT EQUAL TREATMENT **** A SEPARATION, I DONT GIVE A DAMN WHETHER IM AROUND WHITES OR NOT JUST GIVE ME EQUAL TREARMENT, DONT ******* PRE JUDGE ME. OR MOST OF ALL DONT STEREOTYPE ME. THIS ADRIENNE FOOL NEEDS TO SHUT HER SLOW DRAGGING MOUTH. YOU ARE NOT BLACK SO DONT ******* SPEAK ON BLACK ISSUES. STICK TO ******* YOUR HUSBAND AND ACTING LIKE A **** LIKE YOU DO. DO WHAT THE **** YOU DO AND STAY OUT OF BLACK PEOPLES BUSINESS, BLACK HISTORY MONTH AINT HURTING YOUR ******* ASS.
noni & magnus

She is totally clueless. If you read her responses on her MySpace page she also says that she is opposed to any television programming that is not in English. She really needs to take some of her money and go take a few classes; and then maybe she will be able to more cleverly articulate her point of view. She may not have wanted to sound racist but she did.
again with the caps
too f*cking funny.
Me angry black person. Me yell real loud. Me have no point but me yell loud.
Me thupid me guess but at least me loud.
Now me make up word cause me no know real word.
*ahem*
while it was fun to see both sides of this coin it’s getting a little boring flipping it.
In case some of you haven’t noticed or do not listen to news, whites in America are no longer the majority race. And, I have never agreed with anything that is set aside for only one race.
lol @ katie
79% isn’t the majority?
This sh*t is well documented. Take your BS elsewhere.
All of you are unbelievable. She does have a point and even though she cant say it right, the point is still loud and clear. We should not seperate races and embrace one another. Yes we can celebrate our heritage and can do so on a daily basis. We do not have to have black history month, white history month etc…
There are so many races that we all need to learn about on an everyday thing. I dont want my daughter going to school and only learning about Black history month…I want her to learn of all history. I dont think there should be a fund that only certain races can go to college from it. Why cant there be a fund for who ever needs it and actually wants to go to college or university?? Anyways I agree with her and she isnt being racist at all. If people think she is being ignorant for saying what she is saying then that says something about you and how you think the world should be. You obviously think your race is the only that matters and should be recognize no matter who it makes feel left out. I dont like feeling left out or like I dont understand, when Ive been taught it. Just because my skin colour isnt yours doesnt mean I dont understand or sympathize where your coming from. Anyways whatever I believe in stopping racism and thats where it starts.
D, I agree 100%, if more people thought like you, the world would be a better place.

Whites are no longer the majority because they are not spitting out baby after baby and living on tax payer’s dollar!
There’s actually less black people in America than in 1950.
They just whine so much and cause so many problems it seems like more.
Bark for me b*tches.
99 ARE YOU CRAZY?
Magnus…I bet that you are getting a rise right now..I know that this is the only excitement that you will ever get!
If you are not American, save your weak @ss statistics, because I know that you live behind your four walls, and don’t come out much, but this isn’t the 1950’s, or 60’s! White men can’t touch us, or hang us without getting their beat down in the process, so you can get tough behind your rent a center cp all day, but you are just a piece of sh*t! And dripping @ss, g@ping *sshole, you are the one that has been doing the most whining, I wish that I could e-mail..you a bib, and a bottle, NOW magnus..didn’t I tell you that you are apart of the DOG family, you should know…you smell like dogs, even when you are not wet! Isn’t about time to wash that mangled hair? I would say so! GO SCRATCH YOUR B@lls!
She should just stop adding fire to the flame, there is a reason behind BET and that was because at around the time Bet was set up, Tv rarely portrayed Blacks in Positive roles hence the need for Bet. Also so many channels are so “white” in the sense of the audience they cater to and the lack of portaying other Races on their shows but fail to carry the mark “White entertainment televison”, but i guess they try to be subtle about it while Bet are blatant about it.
100
That’s a fact you dumb c*nt.
Let roots in the US now than in 1950.
Just seems like a lot more because of screeching apes like you.
You can slobber all over yourself like the monkey you but those are called FACTS.
I wouldn’t expect you to understand. I had to explain what an MFA was to you.
It’s like a GED for intelligent white people with money and a future.
America is over almost 80% white and the number is going up every year.
Don’t worry, you still have Africa. Oh wait…you idiots are still fighting over there like you did 1000 years ago. Instead of spears though you’re using the guns we sell you to kill each other off. What a wonderful business model!
Magnus
…………………………………………………….
boring isn’t it? well all that sh*t up above is boring as Hell!
save that sh*t, and tell that to a black person’s face…PLEASE
because personally I don’t give a sh*t that you don’t like our skin.
you make up stupid arguments, by thinking that we are from the animal family when in fact, that is you, HOW MANY TIMES are you going to cry? You sound like a little b*tch, boo f*cking WHoo..get over yourself! and REALLY you don’t know sh*t! I doubt anybody care what the f*ck you are typing, but you! Your statistics are wrong, shove them back up your father’s @ss, with that big butt p*ug that is already up there! YOU DON’T EVEN LIVE IN THE STATES..tell whereever the f*ck you are at, to update their cenus NOTES! STUPID!
MFA—-MUTHAF*CKIN *SSHOLE! that is what that sh*t means..in your case! And that you are! MUTHAF*CKIN *SSHOLE! GAPING, open, and wide!!!!!!!!!! ROTFLMBAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
and LISTEN: my country is the USA! I wasn’t born in Africa..DIMWITT
USA is my country! MY ancestors..AFRICA was their country, but USA is mine…I hope that I clarified that for your pea brain having @ss, no b*lls having @ss!
NOW…MUTT go scatch your sticky B@LLS!
WHITE PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE ON METH….DO DENY IT, SMALL PIECE! SAY IT LOUD, AND PROUD!
WHEN WILL SOME ONE SHUT HER UP GOODNESS HOW STUPID CAN ONE ACTUALLY BE HOW THE HELL CAN YOU TALK ABOUT AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY WITHOUT TALKING ABOUT AFRICA, BLACK HISTORY DID NOT START IN AMERICA IT STARTED IN AFRICA JUST LIKE YOU CAN”T TALK ABOUT ‘WHITE AMERICAN” HISTORY WITHOUT MENTIONING EUROPE BECAUSE THAT WHERE IT STARTED WHAT A STUPID IDIOT SHE JUST WANTS ATTENTION
“Black History to me would be everything that happened in AFRICA”……. so I guess africa is the only place black ppl are and they have no history here in the United states right? what a f**king idiot I hope someone slap her across her face with some knowlege..ignore her she just want people to notice her and is shes so proud of her heritage why can’t black ppl be proud of theirs
