The OP has a point, It's why at this point some people have called affirmative action into question.
The theory is this, since the country has tried to and become more open to other races and minorities why then give anyone minority or race a leg up on others.
Its not the first time i have heard black people rip on BET because they feel its blighting the cause.
To often people get hung up on defending their particular cause ( hell I have done it myself, LOL) .
It quite often polarizes people rather than making them more accepting and understanding.
I have seen this happen in real life. A particular minority pushes their agenda so hard it gets in peoples faces making them uncomfortable. Instead of making them open to the cause it turns them off and makes them react.
I am not saying that at certain times it has been important but their is a very thin line between getting people to accept causes in this way and pushing them away from it.
In the end some one is bound to get offended by something.
We live in the largest social experiment ever conducted by man. Never before in the history of man has a country existed with the amount of social,racial, cultural diversity in one place under one Government with the amount of freedom of expression we have.
So ya I can see both sides of this. Its like ok there is black people for black people dating site.
At the same time I can see the point the OP is making and go, you are right its promoting segregation of your culture.
