Surround yourself with the best and that's what you'll become. Surround yourself with uselessness and the same applies. Just stop watching the . I don't have BET on my channel lists just because I'm sick of seeing everything you guys are sick of seeing. Fact is, if you don't watch, they can't sell advertising for as much. We all know what happens when the money starts to go away.
The best MAN for the Presidency today...not white man, not black man or anything like that. The absolute best man for the job is Colin Powell and he would win by a landslide if he ran. Why he doesn't want to, we may never know but he's the ! I'm guessing he knows much more about what's going on up there than we do and figures he can do much more in the position he's in now than he could in the oval office.
We all agree BET is useless, tasteless ...so don't watch it. Want to see a powerful black actor kick ass on the tube? Watch ABC's "The Practice"
Steve Harris is the man and portrays a man in his position with dignity and grace. Doesn't matter if he's black or white....he just happens to be a bad ass actor.
Maybe it's just me but I don't see color lines any more when it comes to people. I feel sorry for those who can't embrace the cultures of others around them. But don't worry and don't let it stress you too much. Stupidity runs rampant in our society and the only thing we can do is to embrace ourselves and push on through the crap. My own two....just becuase pop culture says it's "cool" to be a thug or whatever you want to call it, doesn't mean it actually is. Pity those who don't have the strength that you do and help them see a different way. |

Anyone who has anything to say, please do. But as for me, I'm black and i hate B.E.T. You know "Black Entertainment Television". It's horrible. To me it makes a mockery of everything that black people have worked so hard for by promoting ignorance and stupidity through the celebration of "music" and commercialized black culture. The "thug" mentality, the "ho" mentatlity, the money can do everything mentality and many other stereotypical issues although not started by B.E.T. are incoporated and incubated on this channel to grow and further hinder the intellectual growth of not just black people, but people in general. Not to mention, it's kind of ironic that, black people have struggled for at least two centuries to avoid special treatment yet, we have a channel that is specially dedicated to us. And not the whole view of us, not the well educated inventors, not the genius mathematicians, not the cultured diplomats or even the people that are making a substantial tribute to society but the ignorant poeple like Lil Jon who say "Yeah!" and "What!" in a song and it goes platinum. As much of a hip hop fan as I am, B.E.T. has to go.
I'm sorry, i'm a little mad, and probably a bit cliche, but come on people.

If someone came up with the white-anglo-saxon station, we'd never hear the end of it. But apparently it's ok to make a Black channel.
Isn't that a form of reverse racism? |

What do you mean by "u guys"? Clearly you aren't referring to NomadaNare. He is one of the most intelligent posters that I have seen on TA. Not necessarily because of this thread because it is a very touchy subject. It's his objectiveness and well thought out posts. |
i was talking to black people.

I tried making a thread just like this about the movie Soul Plane but it got locked... I guess if you say something like this and you're black then it's not racist...
anyway, i totally agree. BET is wack, Soul Plane is Wack, Method and Red is wack, White Chicks is wack, Sprite commercials are wack, McDonalds commercials are wack etc. it's all ignorant and makes me want to vomit. |

open your eyes
every other ing major network channel like ABC, NBC, CBS, etc are ALREADY white-anglo-saxon stations, i mean rarely do african americans or ANY person of color ever get their own shows, exposure or press from these channels and because of that that is the sole purpose of BET, if there were more blacks with exposure and influence on these channels there wouldn't be a BET in the first place but obviously that isn't the case |

and who do u know is black that watches it??:conf:
if theres a black guy in a sitcom, he usually plays the retarded, uneducated roles, except in My Wife and Kids. thats a good show, and it doesnt fit into black and white stereotypes.
scrubs is a great show. the black guy in that one is hilerious. |
