agree with you completely... Sometimes I'll pick up Jet Magazine depending on who is on the cover BUT very sorry, won't read Essence ever again. Oh it was either Sister2Sister or Essence but a lady wrote an op-ed piece spewing a lot of hate and boy was she surprised (I suppose she thought the readership would agree). Years ago Ebony printed one of my letters. My mom never subscribed to Essence. She did have an Ebony Magazine subcription from a friend once. Only magazine my father allowed in the house was Reader's Digest and National Geographic since 'you could learn something useful'.

It was either the October 1997 or 1998 issue of Essence; the title of the piece: "Dating White: Why Sisters Go There," and yes, it was certainly filled with the same sort of Leftist bilge that made up the rebuttal in this post. And yes, every single letter printed was against the writer's point of view. Just because some of these relationships go bad (but then again, don't most relationships, regardless of who's involved?!) doesn't mean all White men are just out to hit and run, if you catch my drift, like this woman implied in her piece. One thing you need to remember about the Left: they seem to have this tendancy to take isolated incidents and blow them all out of poportion, in other words, making mountains out of molehills. They're the only ones who always obsess about racial issues while claiming to be fair and open-minded. Yeah, right.
