If you are equating a fictional black woman’s complaints to the several centuries of economic, judicial and social discrimination that black people have confronted at the hands of white people in this country, then you have very warped views of what it means to be discriminated against. That said, black people have special institutions like cable channels, magazines, scholarships, etc. because they are a group that has been historically excluded from mainstream society. White people – as defined by racial characteristics – have not been excluded from very much in this society; they define ‘mainstream’ simply because they are the majority. Thus, ‘special’ institutions serve no purpose for them other than to exclude people. Black people also have a unique culture, just as ther ethnic groups – like Irish, Italian, German and Mexican Americans – have their own culture. These groups have ‘special’ institutions like beauty pageants, cable channels/shows, and scholarships. Unless you’re calling for all ethnic groups to disband their organizations and institutions, I see your rant against black Americans as unfair.
