Women with dark skin are sharing selfies on social media after decades of being underrepresented in the mainstream media. From what I have observed much of the dark skin adoration on social media appears to come from us - black women. We tend to use the appreciation hashtags with our own pictures of photographs of dark skin women whom we feel are stunning. While I am loving this fierceness.. There is just one sidetone to this revolution: I feel as if we are much more appreciated if we show more skin. The timelines are filled with absolutely beautiful dark-skinned women but most sadly most of the time they are all oiled up and showing their body parts in different angles.Now, I am definitely in to art and as a model I know that this comes with the territory. But we most not forget that we are Queens.. We need to stop degrading ourselves for likes on the gram. You don't have to be naked to show the world you're beautiful.You my sister are an African Queen.I feel as if black women are only appreciated if they wear very provocative clothes or if they do naked photoshoots. To me, it's degrading and reminds me of the time that we couldn't ride the bus because we were black. Women were seen as servants. The black women that weren't servants were sex slaves.We are not objects, we are not meat and people need to stop looking at us as sex objects. BUT we need to start respecting ourselves first! A black woman is a woman first and it should not even be necessary to specify the colour but this is the society we live in and I feel like I had to share this.

You have a color of your own- Dark chocolate,You have a culture your own- Hip pop,You have a revival of your own- Harlem Renaissance,You are the spot on a ladybug that adds its beauty,You are the pupil of an eye,You are the vastness of space,You are the richness of soil,You are the sweetness of dark chocolate,You are the mystery in nature,Blessed Black chocolate, God has made You to rule the Land, that made You a slave.

Look within - there is no end!

The most beautiful thing is that despite the shallow life we sometimes succumb to - the soul has no timeline and it knows what it wants and will yearn within until it seeks the journey

Your skill, strength, and overall survival are offensive to some people. Those are definitely not your people.

Black Girls_ Until you get enough of what you__e going through, no matter what advice a person gives you, you__l continue to go through the same thing. Constant arguing. Constant fighting. Constant lies. Constant disappointments. Constant emotional rollercoaster. Constant heartbreak. Constant headaches. Constant threats. Constantly fighting for his attention and love. Constantly looking through his phone. Constantly sneaking through his personal belongings. Constantly arguing and/or fighting with other women over who__ supposed to be YOUR mate. Secretly checking up on him due to a lack of trust. Listen, NOBODY is worth your inner peace! What I__e listed above is NOT a relationship. It__ a toxic mess. So, what are you going to do?

The voice of a Black woman should always be HERSELF ...No edits - no erasure - no pressure - no expectations - no additions - no intruders

The depths of her thoughts will have you never wanting to surface for air...

And that makes us (black women) feel like we have spokespeople, because everybody we encounter feels they have a piece of you and can tell you how to live your life

Magical since Birth.

Never stop pushing for what you want! If something is truly important to you, stay diligent and find a way. Depending on whom you ask, the answer may be different. Never settle for the first answer! Do your own research, ask different people, go above other people__ head if you have to. Sometimes it__ necessary to push the envelope. Some people will purposely give you the wrong answer to try to stop you and/or hold you back. This, unfortunately, is a reality. Some people__ intentions are all wrong. Be mindful that not everyone will have your best interest at heart.

You won__ accomplish or reach your greatest potential in life if your main focus is on what other people think of you. No matter how great you are, some people will form their own negative opinions of you. Don__ give your haters your time or energy! People that are negative, jealous, and envious of you aren__ worth your future. Go after your dreams with purpose and unwavering belief!

There__ nothing typical about Genuine Love. To be loved authentically is to be blessed beyond measure. Only a fool would take advantage of something that so many people yearn for.

Black Moms create magic, so that makes me magical.

I__ an Exquisite Black Queen! I like, love, and celebrate myself. I don__ fit society__ beauty standards, but I__ beautiful to me. I know my worth and I respect who I am as a woman. I__e got beauty on the inside and that makes me empowered and powerful. I__ fearless and comfortable in my own skin. I__e got flaws, but I__ still confident! This Queen right here is flawed yet phenomenal, valuable and unique!

I__ a Black woman. Empowered, powerful, and greatness.

Some of my Black sistas don__ know any better, so I__ like to give them some enlightening food-for-thought. Many of them are in awe when it comes to Michelle Obama. They admire and celebrate her intelligence and beauty. For many Black women, she__ a positive and powerful role model. Our former First Lady is phenomenal to say the least! She__ a lawyer, writer, and she fearlessly wears many other hats with integrity and grace. But, here__ what I__ like to point out: If you can admire and celebrate her, why can__ you do the same for YOUR family and friends? Why is it that when people that you personally know obtain degrees, start a successful business, buy a home, are financially secure, happily married, etc_ Here you go hatin_ on them. Why can__ you genuinely be happy for them and share in their greatness? I encourage you to celebrate the Black women around you, too!

She is Black Girl Excellence. She is Me.
