and I do hope the NAACP will do less complaining about how Blacks are treated at Oscar time.

...for being into the whole race perpetuating thing, you're not very politically astute about race politics,,,,,,,of course the Naacp will cry and whine at the next focal point of opression. We are nearly 40 years past CRA64...and Halle thinks she just refused to give up her seat. What an insult to Rosa Parks.

Excuse me but I've forgotten more about race politics than you'll ever know.

Yes, we are more than 40 years past CRA 64 but in the context of this thread, the bigger shame is that we're more than 60 years past the first acting award given to a Black actress. If you have a problem with Halle or anyone else acknowledging that take it up with the Academy, not us.
