In her most recent Bravo blog, Phaedra Parks writes:
The plight of African-American boys is close to my heart. Being the mother of two black sons requires me to be more aware of society’s perceptions, because I have to teach them how to appropriately conduct themselves in situations like this. While Glen’s behavior and actions were clearly unacceptable, seeing him provoked into a confrontational situation is a prime example of how a manageable incident can quickly escalate into a dangerous situation. A misperception or miscommunication can very well be the difference between life and death, as we have seen time and time again throughout history. Kenya’s fears and poor communication skills turned what should have simply been an uncomfortable situation into an act of violence. I got emotional because all too often young black boys are in similar situations that unexpectedly and unnecessarily turn violent and result in them either being seriously hurt or killed. I was with the family of Michael Brown in Ferguson and have seen this tragedy firsthand. I am friends with Trayvon Martin’s mother, and I know she never expected to be the face of a movement, but fortunately she turned her sorrow into strength and has led the cause to bring awareness to senseless violence against black boys. I do not condone violence against women — I am a woman, daughter, sister, and mother — but I equally do not condone labeling or stereotyping.
Phaedra is so ignorant.
Well said Phaedra! Glenn clearly needed to be gone from that house, but Kenya’s ego at being ignored by him twice, made her escalate an already volitile situation. Tammy and the producers could’ve handled it without Kenya’s intervention.
Well Phaedra is entitled to her opinion. At least she’s not always trying to play victim. Now that’s annoying.
Phaedra made some good points. It’s not Kenya’s fault a grown man acted a fool but she should have just let him leave without escalating the situation.
I still can’t blame Kenya for what happened. I just can’t.
Pillow talk part two. LOL.
Eh. I’m ready for them to find something else to talk about.
For Phaedra to have more education than Kenya, you would think she would have more sense than Kenya but here we are. She is a trashy, uncouth criminal and I can’t believe some people can’t even see through her act.
Phaedra said she ain’t backtracking from sh-t.
I really can’t stand Phaedra.
This woman disgusts me.
I agree with Phae….and yes I believe Kenya was ticked because Glen wasn’t paying her thirsty butt no mind……also he was out of line. And no she didn’t have to follow him to the door and tell him why he was getting kicked out….His drunk aunty already had him at the door….Kenya could’ve been chilling in the back just watching him get thrown out…if Kenya wanted to explain to Glen why he was getting thrown out it should’ve been at the pool after he snapped at her for a 2nd or 3rd time…duh!!!
