Can't wait for the next MOWO awards.
If a race has been sidelined and mistreated are they right to spend a few decades redressing the balance by having awards and festivals which exclude people not of their race?
Not that 'black' is quite a 'race', but anyway...
Nah, not if the goal is equality. I don't think you can have true equality if you keep score. You'll end up with an 'us and them' mindset. Nothing wrong with celebrating culture, I'm all for that: I quite like the occasional highland games. I only go as a spectator but you don't have to be Scottish if you want to enter the events.
I'm not keen on a 'black only' beauty competition because it smarts of segregation. There would be outrage at a 'white only' beauty competition. I'm sure there is no harm meant in running this event but there must be an undercurrent of different rules for different colours. That's why I won't be supporting it either.
