Maybe they will disqualify some of the white performers and put in a black. They did disqualify the song “Alone and yet not alone” last year, possibly because it was too Christian.

Hmm, do I hear complaints when a majority of NFL all-stars are black? Shouldn’t whites have proportional representation, regardless of their abilities?

The reason liberals don’t like Selma is it correctly exposed Lyndon Johnson for the bigot that he was, and the “Great Society” as the trap that it is.

MLK was an evangelical Christian Republican. He is the antithesis of what current “black leaders” are.

No Black Popcorn..No Peace!

Saw a Nigella show in which she used squid ink to color the broth for a risotto.

Probably could do the same thing with the popcorn oil/grease.

Ya know, maybe if more black graduates could actually read, they might be able to have a better shot "reading" for parts at auditions...

Not everybody can get away with being an inept cue card reader like George Clooney reportedly is.

Perhaps the dearth is because they might have to act "white"?

I've read stories of actors being told they got the part if they sleep with the director. "But I'm not gay!" "You're an actor, right? The act gay for the day. And night."
