Lighten Up, People!

Felix Taylor Jr., a Canadian black moderate-conservative blogger, writes about the fallout from actor Alfonso Ribeiro's (pictured) declaration of love for white women [warning if you're at work: video contains foul language and a couple links below feature booty shots]: "I saw this on TMZ.com last night which showed from a video clip that had former Fresh Prince of Bel Air alumni Alfonzo Ribeiro perfroming at a concert and declaring his love for 'white chicks' (well hey, he was married to one). Some in cyberspace were defin[i]tely POed at his statement and I say lighten up. Nothing was mentioned about degrading black women, he just said white chicks turned him on. It’s a free country, it’s his preference, so leave it be. It’s not the end of the world. Hey, I too like white chicks myself. Yes, there is something about blondes that do turn me on too. At the same time I love my sistas and I am not going to participate in this 'who do you REALLY like' or in other words an 'either/or' game. I just love my woman of all ethnicities equally and differently and just leave it at that. Some won’t leave it at that need to get a REAL life! Alfronzo was just having a good ol’ time doing some rock and roll, rapping 80’s style (and that’s the way it should be) and nothing else should be read into that."
