I’ve been on the fence about posting anything about CNN’s Black in America series. It’s mainly because I hadn’t watched it, however, I see that I and many other black people did not watch it either. So who did see it? I caught snippets of it, but it kept ending in me turning off my tv in a rage about here we go again with stories about single mothers and welfare babies and deadbeat baby daddies. I know, to CNN’s credit, there were positive stories, too, but they seem watered down and overshadowed by the things we already see all over tv.
