Re: In this day and age, do we still need a Black only TV ...
NO I don't think we need this - not at all. I also don't think we need Miss Black USA or United Negro College Fund - I could go on. I just think if we are really going to come together as a nation of ONE then we need to stop the discrimination on their end because lets face it is discriminating. No I don't want to see whitey groups or Hispanic groups we need to move on. Besides once we do move on it will give Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton less reason to get up on their soap box and scream. They really annoy the piss out of me
Re: In this day and age, do we still need a Black only TV ...
Agreed, although somehow I can't see us ever being rid of those 2 trouble makers (Jackson & Sharpton) They're the kind of ppl that keep racism alive...
Re: In this day and age, do we still need a Black only TV ...
I am living in a country where rassism is very strong. In the pre 94' we had a white goverment, now we have a
dominant black goverment and anything you say agains them you are called a white rassist.
We do not have such a channel here but I will vote agianst it because there is enough things to fuel the rasist haterit.
It is so sad that when a white person say something agiansty a black it is called rassism but nothing is
wrong if it happens the other way around.
Re: In this day and age, do we still need a Black only TV ...
very well put and I would think of anyone being that you are in South Africa you would know and see more then we would here across the pond. I agree it just needs to end and we just need to get along. I think the day of having something so pointed is racist be it black, white, oriental or hispanic.
Re: In this day and age, do we still need a Black only TV ...
I agree 100% SM. We can have black colleges, black tv channels, black scolarships, black housing complexes, black churches.... BLACK HISTORY MONTH... Basically black anything, but whites can't because it's racist. Yes, blacks were treated badly throughout history. Don't punish me for it. And don't bring racism back around. And don't try to stand behind racism as an excuse to have your way.
I have black friends. I'm not racist. But I'm tired of black people who cry racism over everything.

if they want to keep their BET well let them, then i say we get a WET but then that would be called racist and the sharptons of the world would be out in full force, the station would be rioted, there would most likely be trouble, someone would get beaten by the cops and then we'd have another rodney king scenario, and all for what? because we wanted what they have had for years its never ending
