WHY THERE SHOULD BE NO MORE BLACK HOLLYWOOD OR GIVING HONOR TO BLACK CELEBRITIES

There is no such a thing as black HollywoodWhy should there be no more black Hollywood?  The answer is so simple: Black movie stars and celebrities are no longer proud of their heritage.   We gave our African American journalists department permission to do this article, because it makes sense and people in the movie industry need to just call it Universal Hollywood, if not, nothing at all, just Hollywood.   There all types of celebrities who are making the message very clear, that being black is no longer acceptable, whether if they are changing their facial features or just marrying outside of their race and because the majority have so proudly posed in front of cameras with their white or Asian spouses, there is no such a thing as black Hollywood. Therefore, there should be no more BET (Black Entertainment Television), BET Awards, 100 Black Men of America, BlackVoices.com, Ebony and Jet magazine, Essence Magazine, National Action Network or any other black affiliation, simply because these famous African Americans have misdirected the black community.
