    A CALL TO AFRICAN AMERICAN AGENTS, TALENT AND CREW TO PETITION "NAPPY HEAD HOS" DVD AS RACISM

    By Kim Hicks Gibson
    VP, Inner City Squad Productions

    As an African American woman, and business owner, I find it completely offensive, racist and totally exploitive that Kick Ass Pictures, will release a DVD entitled Nappy Head Hos, (www.nappydvd.com). This sends a message loud and clear to African Americans that racism is alive and kicking, and Mark Kulkis has the audacity to gain profit from this outright racism.

    The very people that he seeks to hire for his productions are the ones to suffer from his blatant racism, and I call for members of the African American community to stand up and send a message to Mark Kulkis that we acknowledge this DVD as racism and will petition until this product is removed from distribution.

    I understand the fine line that exists in the adult community in regards to exploiting the fantasies for consumers to create a viable product, and as an adult film producer, I have produced films to satisfy the imagination of consumers, but this DVD lacks any smidgen of artistic quality and is merely a stunt to gain financially at the expense of African Americans.

    It is important for the African American community to know that -- although we as adult film producers make it a point to go as close to the edge of the cliff of full exploitation without falling off -- this DVD, Nappy Head Hos, has truly fell deep into the pit of true exploitation. I am appalled and surprised that Mark Kulkis would step this low to make money.

    A petition has been created at www.petitiononline.com/nappydvd. I urge all members of the African American community (and those that disagree with this racism) to let your voice be heard. If we do not stand up for us, who will?
