Tell Proctor & Gamble that black women have had ENOUGH. Call (800) 331-3774

Hello Queens,

Tired of seeing 99% of black females on television depicted as video hoes, loud mouthed, neck squiggling brawlers, and tasteless, sexually indiscriminate, promiscuous women?

Sick and tired of the blatant, self-hating colorism on television? Disturbed by the lack of meaningful, classy portrayals of black women in media? Call up the advertisers who just luuurve fund this kind of programming! (800) 331-3774


"The Parents Television Council™, in partnership with the Enough is Enough Campaign, released shocking new data about BET and MTV daytime music video programming. As recently as March 2008, children who watched BET’s Rap City and 106 & Park and MTV’s Sucker Free on MTV were bombarded with adult content - sexual, violent, profane or obscene - once every 38 seconds.

A joint campaign has been launched to call advertisers on the carpet for funding media that defames women, and people of color with stereotypes of violence, criminality, and degrading interpretations of female sexuality. I will add that the favorite target for all of these humiliations is black women and girls.

Proctor & Gamble is one of the worst offenders in funding raciomisogyny in media, and in the upcoming weeks, I am planning to put all of them on full blast about the racist and sexist crap that they promote, and the horrific damage that their actions have made on the psyche of black people, including our youngest and most impressionable.

Anyway, Proctor and Gamble created a new, toll free hotline in response to the study of violence and sexual content on BET and MTV by the Parents Television Council, and the Enough is Enough campaign.

P&G is now suddenly interested in what we think -- because they basically want to know if they are dealing with just a handful of irritated folk (that they can ignore), or if this is a shift in thinking in the black community (ignore at their own peril).

Let them know that the Battalion of the Queenly Order is joining the campaign for corporate accountability in media. The phone number is call (800) 331-3774.
