From down here (Australia) this looks like a blatantly racist reaction from the readers & the industry. But racial sensitivities in the US seem to differ quite markedly from those here so I would be interested in any comments about this on Free Republic.

It is blatantly racist, but here in the US, political correctness dictates that black people get to be as racist as they want up to and including beating, raping and killing white people.

You think black racial hatred is bad at Essence. You should check out the black dating boards. When a black women mentions the possibility of dating a white male all hell breaks loose. Those threads make a KKK convention look like a love fest.
The elephant in the living room of American political correctness is the depth of black racism towards whites or for that matter any other race.

How can you have a Black magazine which isn’t by definition racist? Instad of Essence, imagine Vogue or Elle stating Naomi Cambell couldn’t appear on the cover. The world is insane.

It’s totally a racist reaction but I LOL’d at the article, I find the reaction amusing and hypocritical at the same time. Can you imagine the reaction of a magazine exclusively for whites?

The politically correct response is that ‘African Americans cannot be racists’
But the ‘Country Class’ says this is pure racism through and through.

Michaela Angela Davis? Guess who she was probably named after, Angela Davis, the Communist Party USA leader and once tried/acquitted as an accessory before the fact to murder. Her shotgun was used by a prisoner to kill a judge (blew his head off). It just walked off by itself to end up in the hands of the brother of her lover, George Jackson, a real piece of criminal/marxist work.

“You should check out the black dating boards. When a black women mentions the possibility of dating a white male all hell breaks loose. Those threads make a KKK convention look like a love fest.”
In the early days of integration, the situation was reversed with whites opposed to inter racial dating and marriage. The new generation ridiculed whites who opposed inter racial dating and marriage. The situation is completely reversed now. I am a little surprised about the remarks about black women and white men. I understand that the fury is usually reserved for black men dating white women especially blonds. Black women typically complain that there are not enough black men especially educated, hard working, and non criminal black men.
Integration is now basically a one-way street. Blacks can focus on separatism without any stigma. Whites are still ridiculed for not having black friends. It is whites who want integration but blacks who want separatism. This separatism fuels a victimization attitude, a continual state that is encouraged by the racial grievance industry.

The first black person to obtain a job previously held only by whites — say, President — is historic, significant and all that.
The first white person to obtain a job previously held only by blacks — not so much.
Sadly, there are so many people of all colors in this country that ban their minds from entertaining even a fleeting recognition of the hypocrisy of it all.

One of my coworkers previously dated a black man and was constantly being verbally attacked by black coworkers at her previous job. That is not right.

This is the magazine that publishes, for example, one columnist who expressed fury that a white woman (Angelina Jolie) was hired to portray a white woman (Cleopatra).

"It is with a heavy, heavy, heart I have learned that Essence magazine has engaged a white fashion director," Ms Davis wrote.Racist b####. Imagine if a white ever said they had a "heavy heart" about a black being hired...for anything, under any circumstances.

Ever politically and socially astute Rush Limbaugh predicted that Obama would set back race relations years. He was (is) right.The race pimps continue to fan the flames of victimhood and reparations. It will never end until blacks realize no one really cares about their color - just their actions.Alex Haley, the author of “Roots” commented that black Americans should get down on their knees and kiss the ground, thanking God that their ancestors were brought here as slaves when compared to socioeconomic conditions of current black Africans.
