The white people were behind the camera, writing, producing and distributing the show. The same cannot be said for the Jetsons, and any other show you can think of in the "mainstream" since the beginning of TV.

Sorry that there could potentially be another side, but, well, that's how a lot of this goes. Again, I don't know what happened, nor can a trial, or evidence tell me what happened...because I wasn't there. That's just a fact, and clear issue with criminal trials. I believe it to be impossible to know. And you know…
What's the reason for going after the African dudes, then?
And since no one was there, no one can say for sure what her involvement was. They shared a living space, they interacted. And a woman was brutally killed. Where's the outrage for that?! For her! What about her family? They have no answers. They are trying to make peace with not knowing why their daughter, and…
I'm also equally baffled by your take on this. Supporting the action is an implicit support for the actors. Rather than support an action that could, potentially, give a perception that I am aligned with a group that takes other actions I do not support, I am more comfortable sticking with above the board groups that…
The logical response to such a terrible situation is to ensure that doctors and providers perform medicals service according to high standards so that this never happens again, not to completely remove the service. But I can't even...
I wouldn't equate Anonymous with the Catholic church. After all, the are church leaders or representatives who can be confronted with policy decisions. I also wouldn't equate vigilantism with not handing out condoms in Africa (you actually don't need to go that far — many US municipalities, and Catholic facilities in…
Seatosky is absolutely right. This is about philosophy, and your logic isn't tight. Anonymous is deciding who is worthy of their "good" deeds. Based on the two victims they have decided to help, I'm not comfortable with the message that there are some victims worth standing up for, and others that are not. The problem…
So anytime the Confederate flag is mentioned or referenced, it is impossible to separate it from the complete view of history that includes black people as chattel (see what I did there, I didn't say slavery. oops! almost, sorry!). It's understandably why the country music world and Fox News and friends want to squash…
Yeah, I hear that, and I don't consume the celebrity stuff corporations push (en masse, anyway), but it is part of how entertainers are able to be paid, and for those at the top, quite highly. It is the beast.
Yeah, cause no celebrity has ever, or currently is doing any of that stuff...
I liked it too. Honestly, I can't recall a black woman getting this sort of attention, and being held up like she's (gasp) beautiful and fabulous for everyone. So I say, Bey it continue.
I wonder if there is really soda in that can, like how Mickey D's stuff in commercials is fake...
Yeah, you're off base.
Sometimes, it can't be helped. Summer programming and camps often have those age groups occupying the same spaces. Also, there could be a 13 year old freshman in HS with 18 year old (hopefully) seniors.
There are a whole lot more black people on TV too - AND black women with natural hair as well, which is friggin awesome. It's enough to make one (as a black person) nervous, like, is something up, should I be preparing for the end or something (looking both ways around my office).
To you to: The reaction of people like you are reason enough to keep on, bitchin' on about racism. So, thanks!
I knew, one day, black people would be born in the world of Downton Abbey. They just hadn't arrived yet from, that place where they were.
I agree. People jumped on Jillian Michaels for being honest about not wanting to be pregnant. I think it's great that women can be honest about what they view as the negatives about pregnancy, and being pregnant. Someone said to me that being pregnant is like having a parasite inside you sucking all of everything, all…
