You don’t see those shows are stereotyping Blacks? Cosby might be the best of the lot, but he appalls me with his act. His show is an improvement over Buckwheat in the Little Rascals, yet it remains trapped in the stereotype. Sorry, we didn’t overthrow slavery, fight Jim Crow and rise above it without welfare just to see Bill Cosby play JJ Walker with a sweater and college degree. When I see him as Huxtable you can almost hear someone whispering, “don’t act too White, it won’t be believable.” It is like Black culture is defined by nobler Crackers. Absurd.

You haven’t seen any of those shows have you? You wouldn’t be asking that question if you had. They portray black people from all walks of life: working class, college educated, families, single women etc. Do me a favor and tiVo some of those shows and get back to me.
