There was so much made of the fact that it was the first time a black woman won the best actress, and that it was significant that both the best acting Oscars were won by a black actor and actress. What happend to being colorblind? What about the Latin Grammy Awards? Does that mean we can have a White Grammy Awards, and intentionally shun everyone else? For that matter, what about the NAACP? Why is it permissible to have an organization who's primary purpose is the betterment of a particular race or ethic group, as long as they're not white. If you started an organization who's primary directive was to better the life of white people, you would clearly be classified as a racist, and condemned by most. I'm not saying white folks are oppressed, but there is a clear double standard, and I'm kinda sick of it.

And they're filing a lawsuit.

Take care,

I'm sick of it too...
