Introduced by modeling agent and Black Girls Coalition co-founder Bethann Hardison, Campbell called the situation an "injustice," and said, "There is a small group of people whose minds we have to change because we are living in a multicultural society."

I was gonna ask "death" or "dearth", but I see it is apparently correct on this page, just not the main page.
If she wasn't hating on every black model that came along I might understand that statement. She's done nothing to promote minority models. Naomi is all about Naomi.
Is that you Tyra?
The only black model that had issues with her is Tyra. Beverly Peele, Alec Wek, Veronica Webb, Roshumba, Oluchi Onweagba, etc did not have a problem with her.
So which is it, dearth or death? Very important difference.
Naomi is a very bad example of minority modeling considering her violence towards her workers. I haven't been paying close enough attention, I thought that minority models were in greater number than Caucasian. Yes, the playing field needs to be levelled in this as well as other workplaces. Where I see a problem is the ridiculously low weight of models. It is outrageous.
Yet, she has in colored contacts and a straight long weave. Lost.
By your logic, every black female entertainer can't speak out for minorities to be more inclusive in their field of work because most of them wear weaves, contacts, etc.
I love Naomi! What a legend.I wouldn't sign up to be her assistant if it was the last job on earth though!
She is still swole. Game over. Time to get a talk show, or write books. I see plenty of commercials of people who get plenty of work as a massage therapist or medical professional.
It's "Dearth" (as in lack) of minority models . . . not death.
Freudian much?
I know dictionaries are not that expensive. It's "dearth" huffkids!
