Is your butt big enough to be black?


Warning: If your butt isn’t big, you may not be Black

By Shannon T. Boodram of Sway Magazine Until recently, wide hips, thick lips and solid derrieres, common among many Black women, were passed over and deemed unworthy of even an honourable mention in the working definition of beauty. But this year, Allure magazine announced there has been a milestone victory in the uphill battle versus beauty standards: no longer does mainstream media call for its sex symbols to be paper thin and powder white.

Pangea's Garden is rich and layered and textured. It is a chorus of voices exploring and celebrating the liberation of the Afrosensual aesthetic. It started here with one voice and grew into a community that could no longer be constrained by the narrow constrictions of Bloggers format. So if you like what you've seen here in this small patch by the lake, make sure to check out the real Garden at PangeasGarden.com

It will be worth your while, I promise.

Pangaea's Garden
Pangea’s Garden is the sanctuary for striking images that pay homage to the exotic beauty of earthSistas. It is the place that celebrates pride in an Afro-senusal naptual glamour that broadens the very concept of beauty and gives voice to the rich, textured and soulful environment that nurtures it. The online community is the comprehensive nexus for ideas on the influences of Afrocentricity in art, culture, sexuality, politics, music, family…life. And this is just a taste of all of the delicious fruits the Garden has to offer. Why don't you step into the Garden with us and take a bite!
