2017 should be titled, The Year Of The Black Woman . From pageants to politics black women came,conquered , and slayed as the rest of us cheered on our fellow sisters for giving the rest of the world a taste of just why our melanin is magical. Here is my top 5 list of Black Women who made us toast, boast, and applaud just why Black Girls Rock!
5. Davina Bennett’- Black girls and Black women watched with pride as Miss Jamaica strutted in front of thousands in the Miss Universe Pageant. Although she was strikingly beautiful it wasn’t her beauty that caught our attention it was her natural hair that stole the show. Bold and confident, Miss Jamaica slayed wearing her naturally curly tresses. Although she was second runner up, it was her natural crown that stole the show. 4. CongresswomanMaxine Waters- also known as the grandmother to millennials everywhere is better known for not only,“Reclaiming Her Time”, but Congresswoman Waters went head on with the President Elect by boldly calling him out on some of his political decisions. She said exactly what a lot of voters where thinking with sass, class, and style. 3. Issa Rae- the protagonist in one of HBO’s top shows, Insecure. Issa gave us beauty, comedy, and a few witty freestyles. Thanks Issa for giving mainstream America a taste of what it’s like being a black woman and being unapologetic for it. 2. Cardi B- is definitely, “Making Money Moves” and is an epic example of a 2017 Glow Up. In a matter of months Cardi B went from an ex stripper turned reality star to dominating the Billboard Charts.This has been an amazing year for Cardi B as she closed the year by another win— getting engaged to her boyfriend, none other than Offset, who happens to be a member of Migos , one of the hottest rap groups out . Sisters everywhere dabbed for Cardi’s come up and for showing us you can be yourself , keep it 100, and still go from ratchet to royalty in 12 months. 1. Keisha Lance Bottoms- Atlanta Has A Mayot Named Keisha!!! Black Girl Magic dominated the polls in Atlanta’s 2017 Election. Keisha Bottoms was elected Mayor of Atlanta. Mayor Bottoms is only the second black woman in Atlanta’s history to be elected Mayor...and her name is Keisha! Every black woman in America knows a down ass Keisha who is ready to ride and uses Coconut oil. After taking a look at Mayor Bottoms political background and radiant skin I don’t think this Keisha will be any different. Atlanta is in good hands. This is is just a few of a list of black women who made us proud. As always my beautiful sisters: Keep your melanin popping and continue to show the world exactly why Black Girls Rock! xoxo, Krystale Jane’l
