The quesion that must be asked is: "Was there a need to create such outlets?" Invariably, the answer is yes. Had African-Americans and women not been excluded from many segments of society, then the need would not exist. If you want someone to be angry at, be angry at the fools that caused the situations.

The irony is that caucasians always bitch about minorities not initiating independence. But, then want to bitch even more because when African-Americans do take their destiny into their own hands, they find some reason to pick at how it's being conducted. Either your pregnant or you ain't pregnant. African-Americans are not in need of predicating the worth to caucasians. Until they have equal representation in the media, and other segments of society they have every right to address their own issues in a manner which is in their best interest. Caucasians have been doing this for generations...and continue to do it.

Just because you've lost influence and control doesn't mean you need to begin whining like bitches. Grow up!

Holy shit! You'd think this guys just arrived from an alternate universe with this post!

Even better still! He goes from an intellectual superiority claim to an Ad Hom attack all in one sentence!
Reminds me of every time I've called a black man on his err in reasoning and been met with accusations of racism! When I never even brought up his skin color! Just keep killing each other swing, that's all I ask...
