Black Is Beautiful

In ESPN magazine this week, sportscaster Stuart Scott was asked how he felt about the infamous Don Imus controversy:
“On a scale of 1 to 10, it’s a 27. There are already too many signals in our society that blond hair and blue eyes are all-American beauty. It’s hard enough for me to make sure that my two beautiful girls with black hair that doesn’t lie straight understand their beauty is also all-American. When Don Imus calls black hair ‘nappy’, he’s including them. And to call the Rutgers players ‘hos’–these are classy, intelligent women whom any parent would be proud of–is deplorable. Imus didn’t just say something stupid; it wasn’t poor word choice. He also reflected what and who he is.”
