I am disgusted with BET it makes me sick to my stomach and clearly if this woman does not even “watch it anymore” then why the hell should any respectable black woman? BET is doing NOTHING for the future of our people, they are simply beating into our minds all the negative stereotypes the rest of the world want us to believe about black people. This woman should step up and take some control of this damn company, make it respectable!!! The ONE outlet blacks have to express themselves and showcase the beauty that is our people and look at it! its no better than Maury or any other sickening display of us at our worst…now im supposed to respect thsi woman’s accomplishments??? why? i dont respect her company, her ethics or her lack of control over the product her name is on!!!
pitiful

Wow. I have to print this and share it with my daughters. I am bit ashamed to say that Mr. Johnson was all I knew of BET. However, I strongly agree with Lil Ms. Patrick’s letter on what BET has become. I am sure this is not what Mr. & Mrs. J had in mind when they founded BET. However, this article has truly inspired me.
thanks

Ms. Johnson should read Janita Patrick letter. People like her (Ms. Johnson) can add a sour note to our community. Just read the letter!!!

Excellent article Zettler! You had me anxious from the opening sentence. And thank you Sheila Johnson for your honesty, integrity and for bringing awareness to this fact…”Women must create identities for themselves which are distinct and separate from the men in their lives. Women have had it ingrained in themselves through years of social and cultural conventions to become part of a man’s life, and in the process of doing that many have left big pieces of who they are as people at the doorstep. “
