The quesion that must be asked is: "Was there a need to create such outlets?" Invariably, the answer is yes. ! |
Wow, apparently you haven't watched MTV, MTV2 or MTVjams in the last 10 years. I mean come on, I don't mind some rap music, but the vast majority of programing on these channels caters towards black music.
And as far as having opportunities in this country, minorities have it made. There are special grants available for all minorities who want to start a business, go to college, or whatever. People of all races need to start taking responsibility for their own life and stop worrying about every one elses. If you really want something and have the desire and drive to get it, nothing will hold you back, especially not the color of your skin.
