Black Women : The 16 Black Contestants in Miss Universe

[Chevron Dove]

Ha! For real!

I saw on yahoo news that Miss Angola won!

They said that she won the Brazilians over when she spoke in their language, Portuguese.

I remember when Bro jamesfrmphilly posted that the Blacks in Brazil got angry at all the white women in the previous pageant...So... maybe speaking out does work!? Anyway, I still think this is alittle on the political side, ya know...her speaking Portuguese and etc.... I did not realize it until after reading up on it but, Angola was one major country in Africa in which many slaves were taken out of and forced into Brazil. At any rate, she is beautiful.

Yeah, this pageant isn't about showcasing "blk beauty". It's still about those who fit the european ideal, wherever they may be.

Miss Angola is very pretty, yes these kinda shows are euro centric and only promote Euro centric features, but miss South Africa and Miss Haiti are my preferred choices because they showcased their Afro centric looks.
