::::: Rubbing my hands together & snickering ::::: I love a contest and I love giving things away! So when I won a new HD Flip mini video camera from the Johnson & Johnson Legacy of Caring booth at BlogHer 2010 this summer, I knew immediately that I wanted to come up with a Browngirlicious way to give it away to one of you fabulous OBG advocates (since I already have one of my own). Fa la la!
I'm thrilled to be getting some judging help from Brown Girl traveler Kiratiana Freelon, author of Kiratiana's Travel Guide to Black Paris: Get Lost and Get Found. We both share a passion for travel, culture and bee-yoot-ee-ful images, so check out the rules of the contest on the video (and/or see text below) and good luck!

4. Only one entry per person and this is your chance to be creative! You already know this; but I'll say it anyway: You don't have to be a Brown Girl to enter. You just have to love & appreciate culture! So in the words of Tim Gunn: "Make it work!"
