Deshauna Barber's final walk...

Postby Smile » Mon May 15, 2017 2:01 am

    

...is the best moment I've seen in Miss USA in years, perhaps even ever.

I hope people realized the significance of that moment for an African-American woman. It was an amazingly emotional moment.

Bravo Deshauna!

That's the best moment of all night, everything was awful but Deshauna's heartfelt speech to her mum and her final walk saved the show at least for minutes.

I don't think people understand the pressure African-American women face to make their hair appear a certain way. All those damaging chemicals and efforts to assimilate into whiteness. Not even Michelle Obama wore her afro until her position as first lady ended.

Deshauna is one of my most respected Miss USA winners and I hope she found closure in her final walk.

That was THE MOMENT of the night!

I'm honored to actually witnessed that LIVE in the arena as she paid tribute to her mom. *tears running down my glossy cheeks* what a Beautiful soul!

ICONIC moment in pageant history if you ask me. We need more UPLIFTING moments like that in pageantry that connects to the human spirit.
