I struggled to write about this because 1) My blog is about ME 2)Writing about something this ignorant only feeds into the fire. However, I wanted to share my thoughts on this disgrace. Since misery loves company, I will start with the link and then we can talk about it...
FAMU SEX TAPE
so...I woke up at 2AM on yesterday and could not get back to sleep. I jumped on Twitter and the trending topics at that point where #NCATsextape and #FAMUsextape. Being an Aggie, I will admit I was immediately appalled. Within time, we dropped the rank of top 10 sites and the buzz was all about FAMU. My timeline was filled with links to the sex tape as well. (I need to give you the background before I confess...) I watched the sex tape.
The Uppity Negro has repeated my exact sentiments. Its a true disgrace, however, I did calm down when I realized that this is probably a hoax as NetNoir.com (one of his readers) commented.
At some point in the video one of the girls says something like "I love Miami" and the other girl corrects her and says "We are in Tallahassee". This was enough for me to believe that this tape was just to defame HBCUs.
And until someone comes out and says that one of these girls is in their English class, I am going to continue to wear my naive hat.

The tape was already exposed as a fraud. A big thing in the porn industry now is "reality" porn which gives the illusion of being real but is not actually real because of all the risks involved. The girls in the video are professional actresses, and a couple blogs have already put there myspace pages which contain pictures of the shoot for everyone to see.
That being said, I still think its bad for the schools, being that it was my school that it was implied to have happened at does give me a personal stake in the situation but even had it been another school I think its wrong to tear down the reputation of something that helps so many disadvantaged minorities. HBCU's already have a bad reputation in general and the perception that orgies are being filmed and shopped around the internet dont help that one bit. They could have just as easily picked a generic made up name as they do in regular movies but instead they chose to heavily imply a real school. At this point, now that everyone knows it wasnt real I just hope the story goes away quickly.
