Re: What is it with CNN and race?
Yup..... sometimes I even gave them there black ones priority in our home because they were/are harder to place in the area that I live in. Everyone wants the "good white kids".

Re: What is it with CNN and race?
I understand the faux outrage from some of the posters here.
Black In America, Black In America 2, and Latino In America are just three different shows they have run. What are they, two hours each? And then they repeat it a few times like any other 24-hour news outlet does. A two-hour show out of all those hours? Doesn't seem like they're beating a dead horse to me. I've seen two of these programs, and they are kinda fluffy for my taste, but they do a good enough job at making us comfortable with the fact and the realities of being in those two races, and that those two ethnicities are the leaders of all the other racial groups, which will soon outnumber us whiteys. You gotta have some serious racial prejudices to be so damned offended by a couple of shows that get some play amidst hundreds of thousands of hours of celebrity bullshit and right/left talking heads who speak in cliched soundbites all the time. The real question is why FOX News seems to think that only whites exist in America anymore.

Based on the fact that they have a totally outrageous agenda of pointing fingers of blame on people like that professor who was accosted by the police officer. It wasn't the professor's problem, it was the fragile ego of the white cop's problem. But that doesn't stop FOX from skewing things to fit their crooked flywheels. Glenn Beck is as veiled a racist that you can think of anywhere on tv. If they really cared about widening their small and exclusive tent, FOX would appeal to all Americans, not just white ones. It's like their hurting the cause of conservatives by pretty much ignoring that minorities will soon outnumber whites.

It is good that people are now beginning to see how ridiculous it is to identfiy mixed race people as being from just one race. Most African-Americans ( light and dark skinned) are mixed race people because many of us have ancestors who were white as well as black. Due to the animus from whites against blacks, many African-Americans were unwilling to claim their mixed race ancestry. Hispanics are also mixed race people, so if Obama had been half black and half Hispanic he could still be identified as the first black President. I agree that this way of assigning one race to mixed race people doesn't make sense. However, I believe that race is becoming less and less significant in American society and hopefully one day it will have no significance at all. |

Oh and they do have "minority" republicans on. What does this actually prove? That liberals do in fact USE and pander to minorities for votes. This is generally the land of FREE SHIT to the minorities. All the evil capitalist latinos sayed in their country of origin because they are actually making money and living a quality life. THEY didnt come here like the others did for free shit, free shit the leftist make policy. FURTHERMORE, every minority group is WAY over represented on TV. IF you went by TV you would think blacks are damn near 65% of the population when in fact they're only about 13%. Of course you think Glen Beck is a racist you're a fucking liberal... To liberals ANYONE who isn't for completely supporting minorities in every way shape and form despite the fact they're liabilities to society is RACIST to you. Let me ask you this, why is it ONLY the blacks bitching about racism? It seems only the Mexicans pull the race card when they want amnesty or more free shit. What about the Asians, Eastern Indians, Native Indians, those from the Middle East, Sicilians, Italians etc..... Wheres all the racism there? I don't see Asians complaining nor do I see any other races ALL I SEE ARE BLACKS AND MEXICANS CRYING RACISM, ONLY WHEN THEY WANT SOMETHING. Now if any group was really fucked over it was the Native Indians and I hardly EVER see them bitch about anything and they have NOTHING!!!

Italians, Sicilians, Asians, Eastern Indians etc All these folks don't have their fucking hands out begging for government entitlements and using RACE as a means to do it. I'm just as much of a ethnic minority as a black guy is, what makes him any different then me?????? The blacks and mexicans beg for free shit government entitlements and I don't. Liberals are willing to EXPLOIT these folks for these votes by meeting their demands. I mean what the fuck are liberals going to say to the Eastern Indian who owns a 7-11 or a gas station???? Thats a small business owner HENCE more then likely a capitalist republican [weather he/she votes or not]. These "other" minorities immigrated here so they could work hard and EMBRACE CAPITALISM, and you see this all the time, they generally own quick stops and other convenience stores, hotels and other businesses that sell merchandise or provide a service. These motherfuckers DON'T have their hands out looking for free shit because they're not LAZY and they want to embrace the American dream. I mean why the fuck you think most businesses in the ghetto are owned by Eastern Indians and Asians????????????? Why open up a business in order to MAKE MONEY when your government will just give it to you for free because your black or mexican? There is no fucking reason why most stores in the black community are owned by Asians and Eastern Indians. The only reason is LIBERALS have turned a large chunk of the black community into government dependents.

Re: What is it with CNN and race?
You obviously have no idea what MLK was about. The problem never was that people were identified by race. The problem was injustice.
