A model supporting The “Double V” Campaign during World War II. “Double V” stood for “Victory Abroad and Victory at Home.” The purpose of the campaign, which was started by The Pittsburgh Courier, an historic Black newspaper) was to call attention to continuous legal injustices that Blacks dealt with as American citizens on American soil and as soldiers abroad within the (segregated) armed forces. To support the campaign, Black women wore Double Vs on their dresses and wore a hairstyle called the “doubler” — two Vs in their hair.

A “Double V” campaign celebration in 1942 on 119th Street, between Lenox and 7th (now Malcolm X Blvd and Adam Clayton Powell Blvd) in Harlem. The Double V campaign was started in 1942, just as World War II began, by the Pittsburgh Courier, an historic African-American newspaper. “Double V” stood for “Victory Abroad and Victory at Home” and the purpose was to call continued attention to the legal injustices and segregation that Blacks dealt with as American citizens on American soil and as soldiers abroad within the (segregated) armed forces. To appreciate the role of the Pittsburgh Courier in this campaign, keep in mind that white newspapers did not cover Blacks unless there was a crime involved or, of course, if the Black in question was an athlete or an entertainer. White newspapers did not cover our births, deaths, weddings or any other slice of life-type activity that we did just like everyone else. That is why, in part, Ebony magazine was born. And they certainly did not report on racial discrimination (especially within the military where Black newspapers were banned from its libraries during the Double V Campaign) the way the Black press did.

Someone is pressed. And wrong. Pressed & Wrong & Beyond Stupid.

I have no idea who this Avan is, but KeKe Palmer is not untalented nor ugly, she is wonderful and beautiful.

i think they meant keke palmer is too good

Seriously, it’s obvious that Keke Palmer is too good for whoever that person is.

That is one epic side-eye that Keke is throwing. Anyhoo, hope the OP can sit after this cuz…
