So glad we didn’t have twitter when Vanessa Williams was crowned.
That was 1984, and not a damn thing has changed.
I’m gonna brew a strong pot of coffee to cancel out teh smell of teh racism.

Ditto, except for the coffee since it’s 10 pm here and it’ll keep me up all night.

I am sure there were nasty comments made about Vanessa back then, but they were only made to cronies, not the entire fucking world to glom onto.

When Nina Davuluri was named Miss New York, I shared the news on my QQ blog here in China, so I can show my students how egalitarian the USA is. It’s a shame that such progress has be accompanied by mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging bigotry.
