WORLD WIDE WEB – Ebony adult star Sammura Shane was apparently offended by comments made by Violet Blue on her debut show of “Recipes for Sex” on KSEXradio.com. Shane, a frequent guest and regular listener of KSEX’s Ebony Nights, felt statistics Violet quoted about African Americans and STDs were inappropriate.

Sammura writes:

The quote, “African Americans has the highest rates of stds” was very tacky to say.

All she [Violet] is doing is adding to the myth of reasons why white performers shouldn’t work with black performers.

It should be about stds ,how not to get them, warning signs of them and where you can go get treated.

And even if what she said is true, it just doesn’t sound right.

it just like me saying, “white females have the highest rates of herpes.”

No I’m not a angry black chick, just was shocked to hear she would say something like that.

PS: Gene I still wanna fuck ya! My pussy is clean and healthy and um um good. lol

Editor’s Note: Actually Sammura if you listened to the show, it was very clinical and informational. Surrounding the African-American STD stat was information on rates of infections among Asians, Caucasians, male to female ratios and a lot of other well researched info. In my opinion, there is no reason to call Al Sharpton for help yet…but will let ya know if that changes.

What does she mean “it’s like me saying white females have the highest rate of herpes?” That’s an untrue, unscientific statement. Violet Blue basically quoted medical sources giving her comments some more credibility. Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesus….chill lady. Don’t turn a good show into a racial thing.

So would Sammura be pissed off if she watched the news and a stat came across the screen showing that America’s prison population was of the majority African American? It’s the truth. By using that information within the text of a news story that it relates to, is not a racially motivated act on anyone’s part. It’s just the facts and certainly within a news person’s rights to inform about it. I really feel that ethnicities in this country sometimes look forward to these kind of events so they can make a lot of noise about black-white stereotypes. Let it go, Violet was helpful and harmless, not hurtful and hate motivated.

Actually, I’m half white, half black. I don’t use the term African American because I think it’s a joke this country even allows that term to be used. Many folks you may consider “black” are not from Africa, nor do they have any decent from there.

Regardless, Lisa, you’re rude. I see what your trying to say but your gonna start a whole lotta shit here girl. No need to bring up prison shit and your opinions on a race you’d never understand.

Honestly, I could care less about Violet’s comments. I trust they weren’t meant to harm or foul. I didn’t hear the show but I’ll go with the majority that she was just informin’ about all kinds of things, all races. I just think this is a very dangerous story to post. The world has enough b.s. in it already with racial harmony issues…lets not bring porn into that place too.

Regardless of whether the comment made about blacks & STD’s was based on fact or not (I happen to know it is) is besides the point. Sammura Shane never said it was wrong, she said it was TACKY.

Let’s not front and act like the adult biz is some fucking harmonious
melting pot, because it’s not. Performers, the majority of them being
white, are always saying or doing some tacky shit – from saying “I don’t
do blacks” to full on theft in the form of rate differences for identical
work.

Honestly, I wouldn’t go so far as to say that Violet Blue shouldn’t have
made her comment. It was based in truth. But if I had heard it myself, I
would have felt the same way that Sammura did. If for no other reason,
because of the fact that white performers pull excuses out of their asses
about why they don’t/won’t do blacks on film. This is just another one
they can or will try to use.

I’d would love it if AIM would do a survey on the ratio of race to STD’s
in the adult industry. I have a feeling we’d be surprised…

Sammura Responds:

I wasn’t trying to say she was being a racist or anything like that but it could had been a little bit better if she or AdultFYI would have printed or said African Americans have the highest counts for stds, white blah, blah,% Asian blah %. All I saw in was African American.

Just like when I said “it’s like me saying white woman having a high rate for herpes and someone got offended by what I said. That’s the same way I felt when she (Violet) said it.

I am not in no way shape or form trying to start a verbal war with KSEX radio

I just thought it could have been a better way to say it, then African Americans have a high std rate and that’s it.

No I didn’t listen to her show, I just read what you typed on your website.

…And PS: Not all black people think Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are king of the black folks. (wink)

Editor’s Note Again: I think the only reason anyone mentioned your white girls with herpes stat is because it came off the top of your head. Violet had a bible of researched material.

Sammura I want to bang you like there’s no tomorrow, but I have to agree with some of the feelings of other readers…this event with Violet isn’t worth addressing. Perhaps in Gene’s re-cap of the show, leaving out a few details caused some confusion but if you had heard the show, you’d realize that she was simply going through a laundry list of statistics about races, sexes, etc., all pertaining to diseases. All is good. No harm done.

Thank you to everyone for your comments,
