Obsession: Pam Grier

It is time to continue my obsessions post, I’m going to keep this up for a bit. Today we will be discussing the actor Pam Grier. I was first introduced to Pam through the L word, she played a curvy former alcoholic to one of the main characters, and even though she was just a side character I fell in love with her. Later in the series she becomes bigger which makes me love the L word more.
So any who here are my main reasons to love Pam Grier.
1) She’s made a career of being a kick ass black woman
2) AFRO
3) Blaxploitation Films
4) Few black woman to receive a golden globe
5) Was is in a Snoop Doggy Dogg Video
6) Lesbians
7) Curvy Curly Haired Goddess
8) Makes Samuel L Jackson look like a bitch ( see Jackie Brown)
9) Has such a warm personality
10) AFRO <3
