i find it odd that in one instance individuals complain that when "blacks" have a show they have TOO much hip-hop...music centered stuff...instead of things that appeal to a broader audience...like spirituality...day to day issues that everyone can relate to like child rearing, personal issues and the like...not every black man or woman that gets their own show is going to be "black-centered"...by playing into the stereotype the hip-hoppin' and bebopin' is what we are all about...we sell ourselves short...and i applaud oprah for venturing out into human territory as opposed to playing into the stereotype of what all blacks are thought to be about...
