Oh God that is a false equivalence. 

Learn the history of racism and segregation in the United States and then come reasses your statement. 

You’re welcome.

We don't have time to explain to you why the black community had to create spaces for their own due to the segregation and misrepresentation of the masses. That's on you, sorry.

I know the history thank you, but I think it's funny that people are constantly asking for more diversity, while black people may keep it 'black only'.. extremely weird I think and not very 2019.

Yeah I know, but that makes the black/white segregation only worse.. I'd expect that in 2019 where everyone is asking for diversity they would stop with something based on one race.

Knowing is not the same as understanding

You DO know that white/non-black folks are welcome to the BETs, right? It's no different from the white Oscars...

Perhaps I don't 'understand' it, but I understand facts and I'm shocked when I see something called Black Entertainment Television, it looks very hypocrite IMO. But this is another discussion for another thread

It's interesting how she adressess that producers almost given up on her because she was pregnant during album cycle,

shows a lot about industry tho

Because after the Grammy's I saw a lot of controversy about diversity and stuff and I would never expect that something like that still exists while everyone has to change. Every thing needs to have at least enough POC's, which is good, don't get me wrong, but I don't understand why they keep it black exclusive.

It's hard to argue with you about race considering what I've seen in the GGD Discord last year  you're the same one who said you're uncomfortable with lesbians

You don’t understand it then. It’s just that simple. 

It’s a complex subject for sure.

Yeah but the name scares me like, it's not literally the "White Oscars", BET is really called Black.. ... like I should not watch it for example.
