@AltThesis Imagine going to a women's networking and fashion event where they're sharing positive reaffirming messages...
...and telling them that their event is overall useless and that their looking good "invites the idea that they need to look a certain way to command respect"?๐๐ญ๐ญ
@TeriAmour Y'all were hating on niggas networking and getting dressed up
Imagine coming across a bunch of men doing their thing, on some "why ain't y'all the black panthers or something"? ๐๐ญ๐ญ
@__Curtdoggg Wtf are you saying nigga
So African American men can't meet up for a fun fashion and networking meeting unless it's about "unity and family values"???
Not everything is supposed to be the million man march, you were just looking for an excuse to be hater
@AltThesis Those men did it as a fun fashion and networking event. They also did it to depict a different image of black men to the regular poverty, oppression, racism crime etc we see in media
But even if it was for no reason at all except for drip, the negativity still wasn't warranted
@notcjxjordyc Their mission statement had something to do with portraying a different image of black men to that portrayed by the media
So as long as they weren't doing anything related to poverty, oppression, crime, sport and entertainment - they were successful
Why the negativity?
@xoxotaye I don't understand why y'all think a fun networking fashion event is stupid?
Not everything has to be the million man march ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ
@JanelGabby If you don't like the word "mad", fine. It still leaves the question, why did a bunch of dudes dressing up for a photo shoot/flash mob garner so much negativity?
