I wonder when the good folks at CNN will do a show called "White in America" or "Asian in America" how about "Latino in America". Why just limit it to "Black in America"? Its not Black History month.

And yes there is no doubt about it, Hip Hop Rap music is pure brain washing evil.

MSNBC reports 83% of all new HIV/Aids cases are Black Females.

This is silly comment - let's stick to the topic. You might want to find another thread.

It's Black Arts month, bill in the house today about it.

Hispanics are about 10% population now, blacks are 13%. Wait until 2050. Blacks stay at 13%, whites drop from 67% to 46% and Hispanics jump to 30%

Just stumbled across this thread. I have been watching snippets of the show here and there and I did see the single woman with 4/5 kids from the same man but was not married. No marrying your baby mama/daddy. I hate that term I really do which is why I applaud that young woman who is helping couples make that commitment by getting married.

When did it become right NOT to marry your children's mother or wait, why not wait and THEN have kids. I know its an antiquated theory in some areas,but it works. Ive done it!

When did it become cool to not value education? When did that divide happen? Why did bettering yourselves and getting an education become unvalued in many of todays black youth? Where speaking proper English put you in the " you talk/act white" category.

Small steps small steps

I agree with this 100% Honestly I'm tired when things go wrong its either Sharpton or Jackson in the forefront as the spokespeople for the black community. I would also like to see some new faces out there.

Actually, this country is roughly around 16% "Hispanic". Remember, "Hispanic" is not a race, it's anethnicity. You can be of ANY race and be "Hispanic". If you go to countries in Latin America right now, you will see people of different races there. Just to set the record straight......
