The awesomeness of older black women

Calm down, Ms. Dolezal

“Progressive” white gay men, ugh.

That's what blackface is for, OP. Go nuts.

Shouldn't that be, "Sometimes I wish I were one"?

I would bet my paycheck that “progressive” white gay men led the blackface charge back in the 20s. I just have a wild hunch.

It isn’t just older black women who are fabulous.

Preach!

There's more to awesomeness than attitude, bad hats, victimization by family members and a resignation to other people frying the chicken.

Oh, I thought you said odor black women.

But I'm white, anyway.

Yes, there’s sassiness.

It's not too late to try OP, I hear there are surgeries and other things you can do to make it happen.

The older black lady on a park bench always states the key plot element in any mystery movie.

It would be fun to be Aunt Esther.

OP are you articulate and often angry?

I love Constance.

Today I had to call my doctor's office for something and his ancient black southern secretary answered and at the end of the call she told me to make sure to bring a water bottle for when I come in for my visit "cause you know it's hotter than a you know what out there now!" It made me smile so much. I bet she's a great grandma.

I'd like to try being a black woman for a day! It seems fun!

That’s MISS Constance, didn’t your mama teach you manners?

Ain't nobody 80 years old here!! LMAO!

I hope the bitterness of an old black woman like Viola Davis is an exception.

How cute, R19 is trying to sound young and better than everyone. Newsflash: saying "LMAO" is very 1997 so you must be ancient yourself.

R19 are you okay? That's a direct quote from the woman in the video at OP when the young reporter called her almost 80 and she corrected her saying that.

You know her cornbread dressing is fire.

I watched the World Track and Field Championships a couple of weeks ago, and one of the best moments was when they brought on Jackie Joyner-Kersee to talk about the American heptathlete who won the bronze medal. Jackie doesn't put on airs, and she is just the most positive, loving, kooky black grandma I wish I had.

If you truly believe it, you can be anything you want, OP.
