The diversity pimps are whining, but they ought to get a clue that when people vote, they have a choice. Government loves to pick and choose winners, and the various interest groups, be they racial lobbys, gay lobbys, women lobbys or other lobbys, do influence government and game the system.
For example, Ivy League universities have rolled over and decided that they DO NOT want to attract only the best and the brightest, but instead will carve out a special accommodation for the less bright and the less accomplished, unless they are white or Asian, in which case those applicants can take a seat behind those who are substantially below the standard. The net result is a lowering of the overall performance of the University. Forgive me for being so selfish, but I really would prefer that my doctor be the best prepared and the brightest, not a recipient of academic charity due to his or her ethnicity.
Some groups actually think they are entitled to special benefits because of their ethnicity, or their gender, or their sexual orientation, and government has frequently acquiesced and discriminated against the best to accommodate these interest groups. On the other hand, in areas such as professional sports, it is quite common to see a professional basketball team or football team that consists of 75% African Americans, and no one is crying “discrimination” or “unfair,” even if the overall U.S. population is only 12% black.
The assumption is that the players earned their right to be a part of the team, and so that team makeup is accepted and no one demands that a less talented player displace a more talented one because there are not “enough” white players on the team.

they dont like it then leave the rules and laws for this have been changed to fit the African American sorry but if you were born in America then you are American nothing else but red blooded Americans and if you think that is racist then go ahead and say it
Lets not have any awards anymore. That sshould make everyone happy
Get rid of the BET’s. The only awards that exclude all but Blacks
Just give everyone a effing trophy. Really just do away with these stupid award shows
I guess that the academy will have to award a special participation oscar to the butthurt negroids that didn’t have the talent to win a real one
Don’t like the Oscars not choosing u? See of the BET likes your performance better! Jerk!
You do more damage to your race than good. Obama stirred up so many unjustified feelings between blacks and whites, what already, thankfully were solved. We Americans should stick together because our country is in danger from ISIS,
stop taking the movie scripts to show your blackness and get a regular job after all race is more important than money right?
