issues affecting our lives, acts of resistance against oppression, and black feminist thought
Oh no! Well, I guess it has to be done. I have to break up with my long time crush Anika Noni Rose. I will always have mad love/respect for her though. It’s not you, it’s me. I have fallen for another lovely actress, Lupita Nyong’o. My new girl crush 🙂 Doesn’t she look cute on the cover of W Magazine (the movie issue)? I’m so happy she is getting to shine as her natural, intelligent, and fashionable self.
You mad?
Anika Noni Rose
*sigh*
A few days ago, Anika attended the premiere of her new film “Half of a Yellow Sun,” at the Winter Garden Theatre in Toronto, Canada.
I would strongly recommend folks read the book first. “Half of a Yellow Sun” was written by Nigerian author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. I hope the new film does the book justice. It’s a complex tale of twin sisters, who choose very different paths, during the Nigerian-Biafran War.
The movie features Anika Noni Rose, who I have a girl crush on 🙂 She is such an underrated actress. She also rarely gets props for being Disney’s first Black Princess:
I bet she will be amazing in this film:
