Blacks on TV: III

Your letters were strongly worded statements clearly blaming racism. One stated that “the more Hollywood presents anyone black as dumb clowns and anyone white as perfect, there will be race wars.”

I feel compelled to point out that Al Bundy, Homer Simpson and Roseanne are the white clowns.

While much can be done to better portray everyone’s race, ethnic group or point of view, please realize that blacks do not have a monopoly on being misrepresented or looking stupid.

Besides, maybe the first step toward healing is the ability to laugh at ourselves.
