According to a new article distributed yesterday, Beyonce’s conglomerate success as a black woman is an indication that racism has ended… “Not only does she sell downloads, cds, ringtones, movie tickets, her own label clothes and any number of products, from cologne to television, but she sells a new American Dream based on an idea – that racism is over” (Staffordshire University Professor Ellis Cashmore).

In his new article, which is titled ‘Buying Beyoncé’, the Professor stresses that the singer has sold the idea that America’s centuries-old problem of racism has ended and compares her success to Oprah. No one can deny her accomplishments but being a fair skinned black woman and playing up to that with the blonde hair (to appeal to a wider audience) is what may cause many to argue about this being a classic example of poor representation. Either way, do you agree with his views?
