    No, they could just invite "white Al Sharptons" to blame everything on minorities to keep the Fox audience happy.

    Why are you so racist? These are people of color discussing the issue; people of the white color. You know that white people are victims of racism too, right?

    You know which racists that they are victims of? The white-hating kind. Look into your mirror for more details...

    Not necessarily, America officially came to be in 1776, Slavery ended in 1865(89 years), segregation was outlawed in 1954(another 89 years). So we're talking 170 years of domesticated rule. Now, that might not seem like too much of a difference, but historical context is important.

    We're now approaching 60 years since segregation ended, and to the extent that things have "changed", they really haven't. One could argue they're at a time disadvantage, but all of Africa suffers. And to be sure, African-American's haven't invested in native Africa, and they're simply not interested

    How much more must European-Americans give up? Must they be colonized, as the blacks were colonized? Only then would it be fair? What moves us forward? Only the African-Americans themselves can push forward. We've done all we could.

    You're going to need an awfully big room.


    No, you did, by suggesting whites cant discuss race, because they're not a minority... yet.

    Yep, UNFORTUNATELY, unless you have HIGHLY educated people (who know the variables), when we talk RACE in this country--it is about BLACK/WHITE.

    Exactly, Rich......just like cpl....it's like Republicans having an all-male panel to discuss contraception.

    "Why can't you guys on the left stop looking at gender?"

    :D

    Like I said...Fox knows their audience some of whom were on THIS thread-

    Well then, by your definition above it takes away your earlier complaints...as clearly there were 5 "people of race" discussing the issue.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Men have no idea about, or use any forms of contraception? I guess I just learned another word from the Lefts Dictionary.

    Contraception means female.
    Race means black.


    Learning alot today thanks guys.

    Rich...how many men get pregnant each year? :)


    Seriously, everybody, even its fans and defenders, knows what Fox is...and who their audience is.

    All your bluster isn't going to change that. Sorry. :)

    But look at the context of your OP. You're telling us that white people can't talk about race because they don't know about oppression. That would be like me saying that black people can't talk about education because they keeps it real in the 'hood too much. It would be a silly and ignorant thing to say.

    Haven't you ever used a condom before? Condoms are a form of contraception.

    Similar to having female commentators for NFL games, you would think if she didnt play football, she shouldn't be talking about it right? I think you're right!

    I've been looking for someone to support my push to have females removed from ruining my Sunday afternoons. You'll be the first one to sign up, yes?

    As my other posts states, when BLACK PEOPLE talk about race--OR pretty much anything, white people consider it 'NOISE'.

    I have been watching the NFL for years and I have yet to see a single Asian football player. Not even a token player. Also, white players are clearly underrepresented.

    Have to say I really don't care if they were all white, all black, or half are Chinese and the other half are Mexican. Don't really see this as an issue.

    No one has said who these 5 White people are. Are they on the program called (The 5 ) which sit around and discusses different subjects all the time? If so, are you trying to say they shouldn't discuss race because there were no Blacks on their program? Because you know the program 5 has no guest on it. It's all the same people discussing subjects that come up. If you have watched Fox at all, you have to know that they have discussed race and they have had on Blacks to give their opinion. So lets look at it in the contents it was aired before mouthing off on Fox. If the show was (The 5) you have no legitimate complaint.
