We, the undersigned, are utterly outraged and embarrassed by the way BET has decided to portray black college students. Why did BET have to single out the worst of African Americans in the country to represent us? If they couldn’t have found intelligent and interesting Black People to make a show, then they should have cancelled the show altogether. MTV, at times, seem to be able to find intelligent Black People for their reality shows, so why won’t BET. Glorifying ignorance in the name of “entertainment” has to stop. Not only are they perpetuating the stereotypes about African Americans but they are making them worse. This portrayal is not funny; in fact, it is disparaging and is stifling the future of Black children. BET is seeming, more and more, to be a primary catalyst for the mental slavery of African American youths. Black Embarrassment Television needs to change or re-arrange its ideals, and if they don’t, the “Real Black Community” is going to do something about it.
