Queen of the Universe, Mother of the World...

There's an interesting conversation brewing here, all over a book about why black men like white women. Very interesting and insightful commentaries, many poetic and full of wisdom. One of my favorite lines: "like when they took sweet Jesus, we were the Mary, weeping at the base of the cross." Although the topic of the original story itself may not be esoteric in nature, the developing conversations take it into that realm a bit, and it's interesting reading for anyone interested in black/white and/or gender topics and studies. It's obviously a very emotional and even spiritual topic for many, as it has to do with deep issues of identity.
