Did anyone else notice that the Rev Al was back to his old tricks. Apparently he is threatening extortion if there is ever another award ceremony that doesn't include African Americans being up for awards. Chris Rock beat the topic to death inside. Are we now going to have a quota of African Americans that must be nominated for an award, even if their performance/movie is not among the best? What is next - Rev Al will threaten extortion if an African American does not win an award? Did anyone see Staight out of Compton or Concussion?
I feel very strongly about equality, but I don't agree with quotas, and I sure don't hold with extortion as a way to get what you want.
One bright spot. I read today that Rev Al has lost his daily show on MSNBC, and now only appears on weekends, so he'll have less of a chance to spread his views. He's been behind every riot involving black people/white police.
