Seems a little exploitative

Don’t get me wrong. I really like Charlemagne. He’s a funny dude and a good host. But something about the commercialization here of a supposed black monoculture seems really… artificial. It’s right there in the title: “The AT&T…”.

There’s interesting and subtle conversations to be had about race and culture in America, and I think someone like Charlemagne is actually up to the task, and capable of doing so in a humorous way. But the whole presentation here screams corporate grandstanding in a way that just comes off as gross. Hope the host is able to do something interesting with it in spite of this.

Reverse Racism

I’m tired of the black movement already. Don’t shove your black podcast down my white throat. If I wanted to chorg a shine, I’d watch Blacked. Disgusting.

AT&T Black…..

Don’t you realize this podcast titled as is, is racist. In today’s environment you simply can not isolate a single race over others.

If you want to curb racism, then don’t be racist.
