"even a few television networks dedicated primarily to African-Americans"

Court TV?
Cops?

My college is having a "KENTE CLOTH GRADUATION CEREMONY" on the day before gradutaion. It is a separate, stupid, "multicultural" graduation for blacks.

I wasn't going to go to the REAL graduation ceremony, much to the chagrin of my family. Do you think I should tell them to come to this one? I'll wear a pizza box and a green top hat with a 4-leaf clover sticking out of it.

"McDonald's celebrates black history all year long."

Obviously written by a white executive. Try this on for size:

"We give props to your peeps, twenty-four seven."

McDonald's has joined this push to celebrate black history throughout the year with their "365 Black" initiative.

Just another white man's tokenism. Racist McDonald's didn't even pick a leap year.
They gave us one of them regular short years. (/sarcasm)

365 Black (McDonald's celebrates Black History Month all year)

I think they need to up the ante and get rid of Ronald McDonald and replace him with Homey the Clown.[sarcasm]

Oh, no! Does this mean they'll be bringing back the McRib 365? Doesn't light my fire, but my dog's getting excited by the prospect...

How is it possible that McDonald's "celebrates" black history? They are all about serving hamburgers and fries. Walk into a McDonalds store and as you stand in line and order your food, nobody is celebrating black history. Go there and see for yourself. As you pay and receive your food, nobody is talking about black history. Nor is there any literature about black history handed out to you, offered to you or even available. As you are receiving your order, go ahead and ask the McDonalds employee about their celebration of black history. Notice the blank stare you will get. Ditto for the drive-through. Go to the McDonalds web site and look for article on black history. There will be none. Now go to the Google search engine and type "black history" into the engine. See if anything about McDonalds comes up in the 3,000,000 results.

It is my opinion that McDonalds is not actually celebrating black history at all. Instead, they only seem concerned with serving you hamburgers, fries and chicken nuggets.

(groan)...does this mean that customers will be getting an even bigger dose of Gibbonics at the drive-through order station? I'm still trying to figure out what "hottamahso" is; they keep asking me if I want it at the local Taco Bell. Maybe they'll start hawking it at Mickey D's now that they've reached the nirvana of corporate enlightenment. Just wish I knew what it is...

KEEP IT UP, MCDONALD'S. You're just making it easier for Black people to sue you for targeting them with your obesity causing food.
