Its MLK weekend and Monique wins the golden globe setting her up for an Oscar win. The trend of negative black images being awarded continues! Denzel won being a crook, Hale is sexually assaulted in a gross sex scene and Monique just reminds people how abusive we can be. As if I haven't heard enough stories from friends whose hands have been burned for stealing a dollar or beaten with a pot spoon or rope. I think Monique should’ve simply looked for a role in a biography of a plus size actress or singer preferably one from the Harlem Renaissance period. These are the only ways we win Oscars by looking negative or singing... We are dream girls... And I am telling u... Georgia, Georgia. So if I had to pick between a negative mom who thought us nothing (because there was no break through in Precious) or a singer, give me the singer. At least a singer in the movies brings back to life some good oldies that I can later download for my ipod.
