    Duuuude, whoopi?

    Come on! I think Thandie newton and Rosario Dawson are technically mixes of other things, I don't know if that fit into your criteria, same with Halle Berry actually. How could you forget Zoe from drumline! http://imdb.com/name/nm0757855/

    She's neat.

    I agree with most of your choices, here (especially Halle).

    Gotta disagree with you on Helen Mirren's "bony ass" though - there is NOTHING "bony" about this chick's bumper. Lady has got JUNK IN HER TRUNK, especially for a white woman (though I agree that she ain't gonna win any bumping contests with Queen Latifah)

    And, Whoopi, yes!

    Half of those women on your list are actually mixed race. Let's face it, there are very few beautiful truly black actresses out there. For example, Halle Berry's mother is white. With your logic she could be also called white, right? You Americans always confuse even the simplest things.

    These women might not be fully black but what african American is in the US? Most African Americans in the US are not fully black(90 % of us arent) but we are lumped in a category of just being black. Yes there are some beautifull black women out there and i think there should be more media to portray that. There is a polarized idea of beauty, as Don Imus reinforced that to be white is beatiful and to be black is ugly. Many Afrcian Americans internalize these messages and think to be light-skinned is closer to white therefore it is more beautiful than dark-skinned African Americans. I think we as in African Americans also perpetuate this idea in the songs and music videos. there is this idea of a polarized beauty where most of the women in the videos are lightskinned, exotic looking, long haired, skinny. These women have no purpose in the video but to sit or dance and look pretty. The men objectify the women calling them "hoes and bitches!" I can go on and on... I won't all i have to say is that we need a more positive image of African Americans in the media to counteract these negative images of mysogny, a polarized beauty, and inferiority of African Americans.
