I give up.
KCPT, our local PBS station, is supposed to represent us all, across the metropolitan area, but, geez. Their "Week in Review" program with Nick Haines, is supposed to represent us all and they advertise that and they emphasize, day after day, again and again, that the Hispanic Dos Mundos is one of their supporters but holy cow. Time after time, week after week, show after show, it's 3 very, very bleached white people and one--token--Black person.
That's it.
They either can't or just don't or won't get any Hispanic or Latinx person. Nearly never. So frequently, again, repeatedly, they have the white person and worse, the conservative, if not out and out just Republican Party, white person covered but anyone from the Hispanic viewpoint?
Fuggedaboudit.
Not a chance.
So yeah. I give up. It's going to be a nearly bleached white, largely Right Wing, if not Republican, conservative viewpoint.
Congratulations, KCPT. Congratulations, Nick.
Love to hear what the white people's view is.
Nearly singularly.
Nearly solely.
I guess this is progress. It used to be only all 4 white people. Every time. Week after week.
Sure. Right.
Never mind.
There's no reason to watch this program any further.
How are they not embarrassed? Professionally embarrassed.
Someone please tell me, please explain to me how this isn't racist.
