New York Times Article "Black Women and Fat"



Have you read the New York Times May 5th opinion piece "Black Women and Fat" by Alice Randall?  It's causing quite a stir. Randall says "Black women are fat because they want to be". She also wrote "the fatness of black women has often functioned as both explicit political statement and active political resistance".

When you read the article for yourself, I'd sure be interested in getting your comments, particularly before I share mine.  I'll share my thoughts in the near future. Meanwhile, post your comment and share your thoughts with the EQ family.
