Black Rights Leader Blasts Judges of Miss France Competition for Crowning a ‘White as the End of the Year Snow’ Winner

Black Rights Leader Blasts Judges of Miss France Competition for Crowning a “White as Snow” Winner

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, as the adage goes, and for the head of a black rights group in France, the winner of this week’s Miss France pageant was apparently not beautiful enough to win, because she’s “white as snow.”

Agence France-Presse (AFP) quotes Louis-Georges Tin, president of the CRAN (Representative Council of Black Associations) who on Monday slammed the judges of the competition for their choice of 19-year-old medical student Marine Lorphelin. Tin said in a statement: “Miss France is as white as the end of year snow on the steeples of an eternal France.”

Tin, who released a statement together with creator of Miss Black France Fred Royer, also complained that there weren’t enough contestants who are African and North African immigrants, even though of the 33 women competing, eight were ethnic minorities, and among those, six from France’s Pacific and Caribbean territories, according to AFP’s count.

“The failure to represent the contemporary French population in an event such as this is obviously serious,” they said in their statement. “It amounts to denying the very existence of French people of African origin.”

AFP reports the black leaders also accused the judges of harboring an anti-Muslim bias:

“In the antiquated world of Miss France, blacks apparently can only come from overseas departments,” the CRAN statement said.

“As for Frenchwomen of north African heritage, they were ‘represented’ by only one candidate who was quickly eliminated (too Muslim perhaps?).”

France is home to around five million Muslims, most of them of north African origin.

The competition took place on Saturday in front of an audience of more than 4,000. Lorphelin, a brunette from Burgundy, is in her first year of medical school, but will be busy outside of her studies as she will represent France in the Miss World and Miss Universe pageants in 2013.

She edged out the first runner-up, Hinarani de Longeaux, who is Miss Tahiti.

More photos can be seen on the contest’s website here.

This is how crazy the world has gotten folks. According to Blacks and Muslims, in Europe, the place where Whites come from, they can’t even have a beauty contest where a White woman is allowed win. And the problem is only made worse by the limp wristed Leftists, who are so quick to rollover to their demands. Just watch, next year Miss France will be a Black woman, just to make the whiners happy. It already happened in Norway, where a Black woman was crowned Miss Norway. That’s right. In Scandinavia, a Black woman is Miss Norway. Could you imagine a White woman winning Miss Kenya?

  Multiculturalism is a massive FUBAR FAILURE.
  White Christians Europeans are an endangered species.
  C’mon France, you can deport these black racists!

  All this racist, anti-white, black panther stuff started with the media exploiting situations for nothing more than a story and ratings and HERE we are, I’m placing the blame squarely on the media. God will deal with them harshly:

So lazy not deserving blacks are not just an American problem…even ultra liberal France has this problem…so blacks are internationally a drain on every society. And here I was thinking that ever since Lincoln raised an army to kill his fellow Americans and freed the blacks, that blacks were just a inherent drain on the American society…apparently it’s in their nature to just be a drain no matter where they live on this planet. Who knew!

  Oh, you don’t know how bad it is. The crime rates and disproportionate use of welfare is just as bad there as is is here. Huge swaths of France have been colonized by Africans and Muslims and any native French person driven out by high crime and other 3rd world behavior..The Leftists have played a cruel joke on Europe and the rest of the Western world with their policies of multiculturalism.

  Maybe they should hire Jamie Racist Foxx to be a judge and not only crown a black winner, but he could kill all the white contestants….and judges….is there a wonder why our prisons are stuffed and overflowing with these vermin?

  You nailed it right on.
  
  About 6 or 7 years ago, finally fed up with having them p*** down my back, and try to convince me it was raining, and reading and/or listening to their loud lamentations, I researched their complaints and determined every single one of their inabilities could only be attributed to themselves.
  
  Every group on earth has contributed something worthwhile to humanity, but Africans. They’ve lived a stone-age existence for 5000 years, never having a written language nor did they even invent the wheel.
  
  Whether they’re in Africa right now receiving medicine and money to fight aids, in addition to huge sums of food shipments and foreign aid, or in Haiti, Detroit, New Orleans or other black run cities, they need to be taken care of some way……..which they are……yet there’s never ONE SINGLE word of gratititude for any of it. All we hear are condemnations and cries of racism and bitter hatred.
  
  It’s that way in every country they’ve fled to, not just here and France.

“people of color” How racist is that? How about “People of non-blackness” Same thing?
Muslims go home. You don’t want to be here. Go Home. Nobody asked anyone who doesn’t want to be here to be here. Including Slaves. That’s right. Nobody invited slave here. They were FORCED on us through a culture of slavery and slave trading that didn’t originate here, wasn’t asked for, but embraced by what would become Democrats anyway. Democrats – Shame on you.

Only in America do we make winners out of incompetent black people. president Obama never would have won election the first time and certainly not the second time, had his “whiteness” been more evident. It’s because he appears to be black that he has accomplished anything. It’s certainly not due to anything he has actually done.

  Nobel Peace Prizewinners now have a lower standard of accomplishment since the award was given to Barry. All he had to do was be born half African and half American and schill his way into the Presidency. That’s about it, no real work or accomplishment necessary. Even the Nobel Peace Prize has been watered down and means pretty much nothing post-Obama.

All he’s sayin is if you want freedom you have to chose a black. That way we’ll know that she got there because she’s black. Just like here, you can’t criticize a black because he’s black. They don’t want equality they want reverse slavery.

  My Hungarian born grandfather told me in the early 60′s that “the black man will not be happy until he has the white man in chains”. I thought that was a ridiculous statement 50 years ago. Today… not so much. As it turns out he was a bit of a prophet. I hope I don’t live to see it. I regret having children who probably will. Once this nation is turned over to them it will become like every other nation they rule, a basket case at best. The most regrettable aspect of this probability is the foolish white people who are handing over this great nation to the enemy within.

so, let me get this right: all the winners of anything from now on should be anything but white people…. even when statistically, they are majority numbers in places like France…..

OK, fine- affirmative action in contests…… that seems totally fair to me.

My opinion, this is the kind of crap that makes blacks feel inferior to whites. When children, they hear constantly from parents, friends, neighbors, etc. that they are not good enough to do this or that, they aren’t smart enough, etc., etc. because they are black. No, this is not a racist, white guy saying this. This is someone that observes things and then tries to explain them. That’s my explanation.

Blacks are often more racist to other blacks than white people are racist to any other race. Humans are humans regardless of skin color. Let’s end affirmative action and any other law that favors one race over another. Sick of this crap.

To be “Fair” —– The “Miss Black France” contest should be air’d on prime time “Black Entertainment Television” (BET). The judges can be from the “Black Caucus” and the NAACP can make sure the rules are followed and no Half Whites are illegible to participate…..unless you are our President – then Mooooochell can have her wide load on stage.

So white women should not compete then I guess because if they win it is because of racism. Then lets institute a law that says a black person must always win everything,all the time. These rights activists are out of control. They act like spoiled brats when they don’t get their way.I guess you could say these rights groups are like unions. There was a time when they were useful but now they are ruining everything.

  I caught that too…five million Muslims are living in France so is the author claiming that a Muslim should have won? What can a Muslim woman possibility win in a beauty contest? Which contestant has the deepest black colored berka? Muslim woman aren’t allowed (by Satan) to show their G-d given beauty, least wear a colorful or personalized berka!

Who cares which color we are?????????????????????????????????????
If you are angry, sad, whatever about the color of the outside of your earth suit, I suggest you check the color of the inside of it a.s.a.p. Bet you find out we are ALL THE SAME (on the inside).

  I don’t really believe that the only difference between black people and white people is the color of skin. I mean that’s kinda naive really. I didn’t say better or worse, but not the same.
  
  I think part of this “we’re all the same” campaign that’s been going on is part of the problem.
  Mainly a problem for white children who are basically taught they are bland and shouldn’t be proud of their skin color or where they came from. While at the same time being told blacks are so special that they get their own month to learn about their cultures and history. White children are taught we are all the same and the black children are taught they are special because they are black.
  
  If you disagree let me know why.

  You are right DIm. Skin color is not the only difference. Blacks are not just dark skinned White people. That is a Leftist fantasy pushed into the mainstream by the renowned Marxist, Franz Boas. Now even many conservatives will repeat the mantra that “We are all the same.” Actually,we have many notable differences and to pretend that we are all the same only causes more friction, because we can see in our daily lives that we aren’t, yet we are supposed to act like we are.

They should have a “French woman of North African heritage who is Muslim” competition then and stop their anti- white people racism. I’m tired of bigots. Oh and BTW, the Muslims in France are destroying that country along with the Commies who are now in control of the government.

  To keep French Muslims happy all the pagent has to do is enter into the beauty contest a camel or two.. The camel doesn’t even have to win. If blacks are to win, the judges should all be blacks males. Just make sure there are no blonds in the contest.

  That’s the problem. The blacks think they should win ALL competitions and be able to hold their own racist black only competitions. Since they have a black one no blacks should be allowed in the other one. Also if any of the duties go against the muslim people so called religion then muslims should have their own too. Now that is fairness!

  AYE. If you feel that you aren’t being represented “enough” or included “enough” in a pageant or organization and decide to hold your own (like Miss Black America or Miss Black France and so on) where you exclude “other ethnicities” from competing… then you have no room to biatch.
