[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read all pages but did you see the ig post where Tyler and jen called his mom to ask her to break tie for: which black woman is more impt to black people: Oprah (J) or Michelle Obama (T)

1.  Her calling the mom Mrs Merrit
2. The white woman is challenging the black man on black culture? And agrees to call his mom to weigh in? 
3.  So typical that the white woman would idolize Oprah abs be so oblivious about the impact Obama has had inside black culture

The whole thing is weird and his mom looked thoroughly not entertained. [/quote]

I agree that she has no room to comment authoritatively on Black culture but Jen has always posted about how she loves Michelle even when she was still entrenched in conservative circles. I wouldn’t say she’s oblivious in that sense. I would argue Oprah has had a bigger influence as well especially when  you consider all of the Black authors and artists that she has championed. I am a Black woman but I am not American so I probably have no room to talk either.

Tyler’s mom may just have an unimpressed looking type of face. She may not feel comfortable with technology. Why does Jen call her Mrs Merritt; who knows. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t mutual respect there. [/quote]
