I was watching D.L Hughley Breaks the News, and he had return guest Michaela Angela Davis on. I enjoy it when she is on the show because I feel like she is such a positive voice for the young black urban woman (I am a fan); however, she said something that I will never forget. D.L. was talking about how proud Sasha was as she walked with her daddy, President Obama, but then Davis responded: "To see a young black girl be somebody's princess again, not somebody's B or H or having bottles popped on them. He's holding her hand with dignity, too. There's a whole lot of little girls; we're not going to have to have that conversation with them. That's saying it for us." And to that, I say, "Amen." I agree that it is time for us to be princesses! Whether you are a millionaire, president, or just trying to make it, "HERE'S TO BLACK ROYALTY"!
