For those of you who criticize Janelle’s signature monochromatic look.From her speech on “Black Girls Rock”:“When I started my music career, I was a maid. I used to clean houses. My mother was a proud janitor. My stepfather, who raised me like his very own, worked at the post office and my father was a trashman. They all wore uniforms and that’s why I stand here today, in my black and white, and I wear my uniform to honor them.This is a reminder that I have work to do. I have people to uplift. I have people to inspire. And today, I wear my uniform proudly as a Cover Girl. I want to be clear, young girls, I didn’t have to change who I was to become a Cover Girl. I didn’t have to become perfect because I’ve learned throughout my journey that perfection is the enemy of greatness.Embrace what makes you unique, even if it makes others uncomfortable.” - Janelle Monáe

she is the coolest fucking chick

not having black people in something isnt racist it just means theres no fucking black people

sorry no. anything without minorities is racist. look at your bedroom. is there a black man in your closet?? no? racist. how about an asian woman under your bed? no? wow. you must live in the 1950s

this vastly oversimplifies race representation issues in media. no one is asking for every minority to be included in every single piece of media or else it’s racist, they’re just asking for FAIR representation. in this post -> http://stfuconservatives.tumblr.com/post/48980732624 you can see how representation ISN’T fair, so it’s obviously still an issue, and that doesn’t even take into account the non-white media characters who end up being token parodies of their race (which hardly counts as representation anyway). reminds me of a quote i reblogged a couple months ago like, “if you don’t care about representation, you’re probably already being represented.”

goddamn it white people. Get your heads outta your butts. Stop misinterpreting things on purpose because the reality of discrimination and institutionalized racism in the US makes you uncomfortable with your own privilege. Damn.
