I find myself becoming frustrated with the media, and what we have allowed it to become. No longer do I hear of anything of substance. It's as if world issues are no longer, and Celeb rivalry is the only thing in existence. How did we get here? Since when is Beyonce's new hair color the News highlight that we should all be discussing.
How is this resolved? It's not simple.
There is an overall focus of gossip in the Hip Hop Industry, rather then other issues which could have a great deal of effect on us, more so then Chris Browns Bow Tie.
It's not helping that we all play into this, "Girl did you see what Rihanna wore". Who can tell me about the status of the War in Iraq? Health Care? ...Anyone?
It's always been a little off kilter, but now things have progressively gotten worse. It's hard to grab the attention of our Youth especially when they can easily grab a hold of such a light topic that the media will offer.
I remember sitting in this High School office the other week, picking up my nephew who was sick. Hearing the Seniors speak was a little disturbing. Not one had anything of substance to speak of. Has it always been like this? Or am I just getting old...
I recall being aware of World issues, and not the latest Fashion DON'T that was captured on the Red Carpet.
Comments Please, I'd love to hear your take on this...
