I was in your city and read the article about Lovelace Lee III (“Chasing a Dream: What One Man Can Do,” Nov. 28). I share the same view of the communications industry that does little or nothing to show the true colors of our society.
Sometimes I wonder whether or not they believe in the demographics or data they pay so much money for. It is time for African Americans to invest more in themselves and a communications system to tell their stories.
What are they afraid of? America will slowly be strong when we all are strong and productive. I hope there is a follow-up to Mr. Lee’s adventures in Hollywood.
