About: Fly + Intellect
Mz Coko likes being Fly... and Mz Coko likes talking about stuff other than clothes... cuz that's what 'Intellectuals' do. Plus Mz Coko has a slight case of ADD and can not stay on one topic... so whatever Mz Coko feels like talking about (something along the lines of fashion and black folk issues) is what is gonna get talked about.

Kill Yourself: Per-Henrik Zahl
Sooo before reading this blog.. read this article. Per Henrik Zahl is the scientist behind this study that basically said:

--frequent mammograms are unnecessary because many tumors will regress on their own without treatment
--breast/prostate cancer isn't deadly

While this article doesn't say anything about blacks/african-americans (whichever you prefer)... If this foolishness disguised as science and sense gets around, its implications could possibly have devastating effects on our community. If anybody knows about the health disparities that exist with breast cancer alone.. you know that black women are diagnosed less with breast cancer yet have the highest mortality rate... If we get the disease we are less likely to last 5 years.. Why?

The main reasons are lack of early detection and disparities in treatment

Tell all the thousands of black women that have died from breast cancer that bullshit... Its supposed to go away on its on. Oh wait.. you can't.... because they are fucking D E A D. So you... Per-Henrik Zahl.. can go jump off a bridge with cement slippers on. I'm mad so I have nothing else to say.
