respect me coalition
The Respect Me Coalitiion is calling for the elimination of demeaning images and offensive language used to depict, and describe African American women, and for the promotion of both respectful and truthful representations by those in the media and in their communities. Females of all ages are being urged to stand in solidarity to give voice to the issue of respect through various degrees of activism. Political, economic, social and faith-based organizations are being encouraged to support this historic effort to bring about positive changes to the treatment of women. The Respect Me Coalition seeks to engage media executives, artists,a nd consumers in dialogue to discuss their respective roles in perpetuating this continuous assault. The Respect Me Coalition has resolved that, “There will be a zero tolerance for the wholesale authorization of glorifying negative and demeaning images of African American women going forward.” For more information, call 323 846-1645 or email: miarespectme@lasentinel.net |
