I’ve been seeing more and more black models on & in magazines as well as in tv commercials. Doesn’t bother me to see the black middle class finally being presented & represented. Hope it sets examples for the next generation of Americans.

Wonder if Naomi Campbell is an affirmative action model herself.

Naomi Campbell, Iman and Jourdan Dunn grace Vogue Italia's all black issue. Campbell, who was born in London to a mother of Caribbean descent, refers to the publication last year of a special edition of Italian Vogue dedicated to non-white models.

So, this is OK with her?

Wonder what she would say if there were issues that used nothing but white models?

Oh wait, never mind.

More often than not, political correctness devours its own.

The biggest victims of "let's give the criminals a pass because they are black" attitude are mainly other black people.

The biggest victims of "let's not enforce the borders because everyone deserves a piece of the American dream" are mainly other Latinos.

Now if only we could figure out a way to ensure the main victims of Libtard office holders idiotic policies were other libtard office holders . . .

Naomi says she doesn’t see black women or women of any other race in the ad campaigns. So, white women have no race, no ethnicity etc? A friend said that she always leaps into conversations that swing toward racial discrimination with a question for her colleagues who are black or another racial minority. “So, what ethnicity am I?” Her colleagues look at her - “You’re white”. She replies, “No, that is a skin tone, I want you to tell me what ethnicity I am.” They are stumped and when they give up saying that she doesn’t have an ethnicity because she is white, she comments on their ignorance of her racial heritage and how deeply it offends her. They demand to know what she thinks her ethnicity is. She again laments the disrespect people of her heritage receive etc. She then tells them that she is half Scottish and half Polish. Her colleagues laugh and say that isn’t an ethnicity. She arches a brow and reminds them that these are two sovereign nations with distinct traditions, history, cultures etc. and laments that they take no interest in her heritage but ask her to remain focused on theirs, moment by moment. IN fact, she notes, they even claim she has no heritage tsk tsk tsk. ETc.

Never afraid of speaking her mind

There's a fine line between speaking your mind and sound like a bloomin' idiot.

"That made some noise, but, unfortunately, we are the same as before," she says. "People, in the panic of the recession, don't dare to put a girl of colour in their campaign, full stop. Nor of any other race. It's a shame. It's very sad."

What's very sad is that this moron doesn't realize that white models are people of color, unless they're albinos.

Who is she trying to kid, I get more black folks of all ages shoved in my face in commercials, advertisements and news stories. Most commercials show stupid white people next to “with it”, “in the know” blacks every where you turn. More now than ever before.

Personally I hope she never finds another job again and no one even thinks about entertaining her especially after this.
