Triple Affirmative Action: First Time Black Women Win All Three Biggest US Pageants

 

Leila Lopes from Angola was crowned Miss Universe 2011
 

“Thank God I'm very satisfied with the boob job my plastic surgeon gave me, and I wouldn't change anything else. And of course, the judges were bound to ignore beauty, and vote for a contestant from a Third World country.”

Alright, she didn’t say that, but she should have.

"W": Sorry, I'm not convinced….

"First time black women win all three biggest US pageants" - BBC News

N.S.: Remember several years ago, when the Miss Universe judges (Donald Trump's pc flunkies, by the way) crowned an Angolan plain Jane the world's most beautiful woman? Meanwhile, the Danes had elected a stunning woman PM, who was old enough to be Miss Universe's mother.

 


Danish PM Helle Thorning-Schmidt

"The wins are particularly meaningful given the competitions' decades-long history of racism and bias."
(GRA:So,no blacks have EVER won---right?Wrong,see the next paragraph,it was actually a long time ago that a blackie was crowned as Miss Whatever.)

"Vanessa Williams was the first black woman to win a top pageant in 1983."(GRA:So after 1983,no blacks ever won again--right?Uhh,no--see the next paragraph.)

"After Ms Williams was crowned Miss America, it took until 1990 for another black woman to win a major pageant."
(GRA:Seven whole years?Was there supposed to be a quota?How many years will it be before a white person wins a Miss America contest--and who in the press,will complain about the lack of whites winning?)
GRA:White women HAVE to see what's happening--that being black has become a huge
advantage and being white disqualifies you from winning,so what's the point of entering?A lawsuit should be filed for discriminatory practices by these contests.Skin color isn't important?Guess again,it's the ONLY thing.
The same situation is occurring at the Oscahs--and the fact that these awards are prima facea, black soothing,phony acknowledgements--only based on skin color and not talent,doesn't matter.And blacks don't care about the reason they're winning (they're laughing at how they've got whites wrapped around their prejudiced fingers) and although whites are turning their sets off in greater numbers all the time for these types of programs, poor ratings hasn't killed CNN or MSNBC--because,the agenda's the thing--isn't it?

Helle Thorning-Schmidt isn't just beautiful, she has brains and ethics, she's one of the few European leaders to have had a hard line anti immigration stance when she was in office, which garnered her a great deal of criticism. https://newint.org/blog/2016/02/09/helle-thorning-schmidt-did-not-save-the-children
Europe needed, and needs, more leaders like her but they are under immense pressure from the forces of globalization. Fortunately for Denmark, Thorning-Schmidt's successor Lars Lokke Rasmussen is also anti immigrant. How long the Danes can resist the EU and other forces of evil, God only knows but I'm rooting for them. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-06/anti-immigrant-view-adopted-by-denmark-s-biggest-political-party
