Greetings Fly Ones! So before I collapsed in my bed last night I was greeted by an interesting email. It was an 
email introducing me to JAM DONALDSON DESIGNS . Jam Donaldson is the creator of the controversial hit BET series starring Charlie Murphy, “We Got To Do Better,” and the popular website Hotghettomess.com. Jam Donaldson has launched a line of pop-culture tees with the same message she conveys on her site and television show, that we must improve as a whole in the African American Community. JAM DONALDSON DESIGNS creates vintage style tees which has broken phrases that many African Americans tend to use throughout a daily conversation. . I love the idea of encouraging people of Color that it is not cute/attractive to not speak proper English. Her designs allow you to read what one says and how it looks in written form.

As AFrican Americans we are continuing to have to fight against ignorant stereotypes that society places on us. It hurts my heart when we as a people continue to keep those same stereotypes flowing because we think that is the best we can do. It is utterly ridiculous on how we feel the need to PURPOSELY speak broken English and then have the nerve to write how it sounds. It kills me when people try to sound intelligent and uses made up words such as "Conversate." And we wonder why children are failing Spelling tests left and right. Children are video cameras that play back what they see and hear on an everyday basis. Stop the CycLe!
JAM DONALDSON DESIGNS can be found exclusively at http://store.jamdonaldsondesigns.com/shop.html. Support Proper English, watch what you say and buy a Tee!
God Bless!!
