Seriously, People Magazine doesn't get it. |
Why do I continue to post this?
Every year and it hasn't got any better with People Magazine. For years, me and S. Baldwin constantly informed the good readers here about "The Sexiest Man" alive magazine cover.
Now I think it's time for Black activism.
The last one was Dwayne Johnson. That was the last person of color to grace the cover. The last one was 20 years ago with Denzel Washington.
Let's get the ball rolling.
Country music star and reality television host Blake Shelton graces the cover.
Many are calling him out for the past comments directed at Muslims, Blacks, LGBTQ and women.
Many are getting tired of this. I know I am. I am tired of celebrity tabloids using these titles to divide people.
People gives Americans the impression you got to be White, skinny, rich and at least newsworthy.
I expect conservatives to draw conclusions and use the minority owned magazines as a cover. Yeah, did you know that Ebony and Jet were started because of People Magazine?
John H. Johnson got fed up with magazines covers showing only White people. So he started his own and it became a success. Ebony and Jet are not as big as People.
People Magazine defines celebrity.
On the cover, Shelton was pleased about it. He hopped on social media to thank the magazine.
Shelton is dating pop star and reality star Gwen Stefani.
So what's your take on the matter?

They'll never get it because they still want to portray White men as the most romantic at the expense of Men of Color and Black men.
