idunno, better more varied depictions of black people
using psychedelics in a modern context, but still with proper reverence, not going all the way back to original African tribal usage all the time.
more depictions of black people like me!

We're out and about but no, we don't usually make the media at all. I know so many black hippies you'd think it was some kind of fad. Black women going natural, big afros and race consciousness, leaning on different philosophies (some of which I think are kind of dumb but philosophy is all about the argument) I wish there WAS better representation of us.
If anything, I wish Tyler Perry would disappear for awhile just so I'm not constantly bombarded with the message of how my life would be so much better if I just accepted Noir-Sexism, straightened my hair, and accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior. *sigh*

The hell does this mean? I don't believe you are correct. Everytime I have seen a negress or group thereof in their "natural state" they never had big afros. They have braided hair, breasts resembling deflated leather clad raisins, usually near their knees, I believe they serve the dual purpose of breast feeding both their children as well as their goats.


You should tell your negress hippie friends to try and go straight African negro natural, not the fat, heart disease ridden, ebonics speaking Americanized version.


WTF? WHITEFACE? Bama and Sharpton need to march their asses to Africa to explain to these people that that shit is RACIST!

You're implying that your definition of hippie is some form of mindless apathy? Ick, yeah no thanks I'm not really trying to be that. Many hippies were activists too ya know?
And thank you for the aura healing but I highly doubt that means anything to the millions of people in the world dealing with economic inequality, institutionalized racism, lack of food and potable water, or the effects of economic imperialism.
Glad to meet another brother in light but I guess we're just on different paths lovie. ^_^

I don't really think every segment of society did the Hippie thing. Hippies tried to go legit and change society and you see that probably most in music and television (especially PBS children's programming). Otherwise no there isn't a lot of popular black hippie stereotypes. I think the Neo-soul music offshoot of RnB attracted many chill performers. I know that's where I turn for my shiny happy moments.
Now what? I once thought Obama would raise up equality of diversity, but the level of hate has just been doubled for blacks and for the government. This is something I feel sorrowful about. Racism will spill out which I feel is sad since I do live in a multicultural epicenter. Not sure what my point is.
