Colleges of Color

<p>No girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>certain people dont want to be around girls 7112 ;););););)</p>

<p>you need a day job...or a nightjob... just a life</p>

<p>nah but seriously...props i didnt think youd actually name em.</p>

<p>yes and they would also be commenting here and saying things like "Why not go to a men's college?" lol im jk Wabash haha</p>

<p>Women are a great thing. however, not in my learning environment!:):P</p>

<p>first i would like to say that I am black.....
And BET does not cater just to blacks if you have ever watched you notice that a lot of it is geared towards hispanics also and they do include a lot of whites... Personally my favorite artist is john mayer but i do watch bet every once in a while... and i actually think that black colleges and single sex schools are lame b/c they take away some of the challenges that ppl will have to face after graduation</p>

<p>The Name says Black, which means its not for asians/indians, not for whites, not for hispanics.</p>

<p>for Blacks</p>

<p>no It just says black because as said before when it came out we were underrepresented in the TV world It is for anyone who watches it. If it wasnt people like Eminem wouldn't get to be on there. There are plenty of people who arent actually black who appear on BET.</p>

<p>BTW-im black too if you couldnt tell
I really am getting tired of white people who feel "left out" cause they think they cant watch BET-its for everyone DAMN.
BTW-Im also white half african-american/white</p>

<p>Lastly, this thread needs to end. Its stupid and pointless in my opinion</p>

<p>Obviously your black...youre arguing for the stupid thing and obviously it caters to blacks so stop saying "well it has white people on there" those white people act black anyways so it doesnt matter besides I dont care who it caters to...if it catered to all whites but was still called BET it would still suck!!!!</p>

<p>Ok so if BET was only for blacks why do they have a hispanic host on two of their television shows? Also why do they promote reggaeton music on there? Its not only for blacks because if it was they wouldn't let any other race besides white be a part of it. Viacom owns the channel but do you call them racist against other races besides blacks? Its not only for black people. Just like CMT plays country music and you rarely ever will see a minority on there, that doesn't mean that they are being racist. The station is just catering to people who like to hear and see country music artists, that they do not usually play on MTV for a majority of the time. This is the same with BET. Hip Hop fans can turn to BET most times of the day and see and hear the music videos and other things that they like. Also, their is a new show on MTV that has white people in in called "The Ultimate Hustler", and their are white people on "Comicview" quite often so please explain how that is racist.</p>

<p>yeah one of the best comedians on comic view is white
I forget his name though-he had a special one hour wit them</p>

<p>Um but CMT is not named white. Bet is named Black</p>

<p>That wasn't my point but I guess it doesn't matter what my point was because mostly everyone will keep bringing up the fact that its called "Black Entertainment Television". Truth is if your calling that name racist then you must also call Lifetime's "Television for Women" sexist, etc.</p>

<p>Thats because it is called BET and y does everyone keep bringing up the opposite sex thing its really annoying because its not even close to being the same thing. Are women bitter about their past and the fact that they couldnt vote until the 1800's???? NO so minorities should not be either</p>

<p>*** WE ARENT BITTER
how would you know how we are and arent and where did voting come from?
BET has black entertainment in it...big deal if you cant deal with a station being called BET then go live in a hole............
It seems the only people who are offended by BET are the people who don't even watch it........I wonder why the white comedians on comicview dont have a problem with it hmmmmmm</p>

<p>"how would you know"</p>

<p>Because they all talk about like the government owes them something for their great-great-great grandparents slavery. They always bring up race...when has a white person ever said "its because im white" without joking? </p>

<p>I brought up voting because women didnt have those rights, just as blacks where in slavery...yet it shows that women overcame they did not whine, and complain and ask for a monthly check from the government</p>

<p>I agree with CH121S minorities aren't bitter. People have gotten over that whole thing. Again, your missing the point but I'm not even going to explain it because certain people on this thread are so close-minded to the fact that BET is not a racist television station even though there are many good arguements on here as to why BET isn't racist. Nothing anybody says will change anyones opinion so why dont we just end this its pointless.</p>

<p>Closing this thread as the arguments now are redundant.</p>
