[QUOTE="Ken-1122, post: 75548503, member: 277047"] No, that happens only by force. When everything is fair, you will NEVER get what you call “equal representation. “The Oscars” is only one of countless award ceremonies for the film industry. It no more represents all in that industry any more than any of the countless others. So the Oscars is so white, BET awards is so black; do they have anything that is so brown? Or asian? Perhaps that is where you should be directing your complaints. It just isn’t me, but all black people. How many black actors do you see being accused of playing racially offensive roles? (hint; none) Perhaps it’s YOU! Just because you’re white doesn’t mean your perspective is somehow better. Then understand white people aren’t playing the victim when they are being insulted this way as well. So why did you make the claim of light skinned hispanics trying to pass for white, when they are already white? There is no need to try to pass. As long as they make no attempts to get Reservation privileges, there is nothing stopping them from making such claims. There is no single black experience or black culture, like white folks, there are countless experiences and cultures in this country. It doesn’t matter why, they are still trying to pass for something else. [/QUOTE]
