Stacey Dash on Oscars Boycott: Get Rid of BET and Black History Month Instead

The Fox News contributor says there's a "double standard" at play.

[sr]

Morgan Freeman basically said the same thing but people applauded him.

[MrTremagnus]

I am black and I agree with her; if you are from America, you are an American PERIOD.

[JMo-ezrs]

Nobody ever brings up the fact, true history is not taught in school.

[leoscarpolinonly]

Sooo, there should be no Bollywood? No Telemundo? No Univision? Noooo, FOX and Friends?

[ghanaianqueen]

Black History Month is different because it was made in order to honor and remember the people that have died, suffered, and fought for the rights and freedom that we have today, so that our children and generations after can understand the history of this nation. It is not about getting entertainment awards, its about change!

[missriina]

she the just contradicted herself
"get rid - BET, AWARDS, IMAGE"
Then said President Obama is funded by people in Hollywood and not enough "black people" are being recognized.

[harundaddy]

Stacey Dash is not black. She is mixed race. She shouldn't be speaking about black people problem

[shanekamcduffie]

I do agree with her on getting rid of BET that shit is

[TijasWorld]

We don't need BET or black award shows? Ok fine....then CMT & the country music awards gotta go. We don't need a month too? Oh ok..then National Hispanic Heritage Month, Asian Pacific American Heritage Month & every other culture that has a month to celebrate their culture & their people gotta go too....But black folks separate ourselves though 🤔

[Will_]

All that tap dancing just to get booted out of existence and now getting no support from the black people she stabbed in the back…🤷🏾‍♂️

[BTheTrue]

this comment section show such a lack of historical knowledge by so many Americans. its sad.

[LBeasleey]

How hard did Fox have to look to find this chick, somebody give her the donkey of the year.

[mariamin]

i do agree with what she said. she has valid points

[rahmanbanks]

At the multi-racial person you know I feel like seriously what the hell do you need with a black history month or any type of History Month

[RamonaSamuelsTV]

People misconstrued what she said, she herself didn't deliver so sensibly, but I do understand her point about segregation.

[seriousblakk]

I'm black and I completely completely agree .atleast with the bet... Haha now I'm sorry but I love me some black history month. we seriously deserve that shit . but I see alot of double standards that I feel will keep us segregated. we shouldn't always try to isolate ourselves as a ppl and culture. not if we wanna coexist in a mixing pot nation. you can't wanna belong and yet don't wanna belong at the same time. it sends a very confusing message. #FoodForThought

[rosebug]

That's funny, because wasn't she in Bet 🤣😂😂😂😂

[Cultsurvivor]

Ok folks condemned her wayyy to hard. She had the right motives and intentions it was just her delivery was off. All folks heard was get rid of bet bet awards. They didnt hear the word segregation nor do they know wat it means

[chitownreak]

she should know better than to use common sense, that dont work today

[getitboy]

It's like she said everything Morgan Freeman said 12 years ago. Weird how she received hate while he got all the praise.
