But all in all i respect the fact that adrianne was able to recognize Native Americans in her statement, what she said took a lot of balls and i think we just need to learn more of each other i’m also a native myself and i feel as though natives dont get as much recognition as other ethnicities even though we have contributed a lot to this country already. starting with the navajo codetalkers there may be students in high school through out america that dont even know who they are and what they did. i know that there is a Native History month but just doesnt have a huge impact on people such as Black history month. i do disagree with Adrianne on boy cotting Black history month for the fact that its a way for younger African-americans to learn their own history and background. i have a friend that is part navajo/black and god only knows what she goes through everyday from other peoples judgment.

Is she aware that most other races in this country have days, weeks, or months set aside for education and history? Is she aware that during those occasions, that the people involved learn history from the people that actually experienced it, not by those that wish to make it all disappear? Is she stupid enough to believe that there are no racial problems in this country today? Has she heard of the Jena 6? Did she see the response to hurricane Katrina? Did she ever wonder why black people, in New Orleans, were stuck on a bridge that led to dry ground, instead of crossing it? Did she ever wonder why the media never showed the small army of armed white people on the other side of the bridge, ready to shoot anyone that tried to get to dry ground? Does she realize that one of the most idiotic thing that fool can say is that "I used to date a... My best friend was a... I know lots of..."? I can actually agree with some of what she said, if the world was perfect and all people had good will towards one another. But it's not. Maybe in a hundred years, we should suggest to the descendants of the victims of the 9/11 attacks that they should just "get over it." See how well that would go over...

If we didn't have black history month we wouldn't know who Thurgood Marshall, Harriett Tubman, Charles S. Drew, Benjamin Banneker, and thousands more are. Black History Month is also necessary so we learn about black people who changed history forever who we don't know (hint:William McKinley Royal, Lewis Lattimer,) don't know who they are right, you see without black history the only black people we wold know about is rosa parks, malcolm x, martin luther king jr. P.S. Morgan Freeman didn't agree with you. If you was listening he said black history should be EVERY MONTH! Adrienne, you don’t know what your talking about.

Racism is still in effect today the Jena 6,and its not just black people that other races judge. Black history month is about celebrating the history of what black people have acomplished in america. If you don't like BET dont watch it. Adrianne you can say goodbye to your career sweetie. One thing that I have learned and what whites have to say about blacks as a race, how we act and the music that we listen to, I can care less of what a white person saids or has a problem with me and my culture because I was not put on this earth to impress a white person.

If I was Tyra Banks I would be highly embarrassed by this idiot's comments. I am laughing so much I can't even think of what else to say. I do know I won't be watching ANTM anymore if this is the kind of idiots they pick as winners. I rather use my brain cells on something else.

BET is a wasteland. Boycott it for its ridiculous shows but to tie this into some kind of crusade to rid America of some perceived special treatment that blacks get...which by the way according to her, jews don't get (ha)...in fact nobody else has a month where there is special emphasis on their culture, according to her. Also no one else has television programming geared toward their specific group....Is this chick for real???? What an ignoramous! And the fact that she has a chorus of whites giving her props for her ignorance really says a lot.

And my goodness, i agree slavery was a terrible thing, but it was the past and I think too many African Americans use that as crutch. Slavery still goes on in some parts of Africa, and you want to know what? It is Africans enslaving fellow Africans!!! So yes, it is time to get over it!!! Natives were on this land first and their land, homes and families were ripped aprt from them, but do you have a Native American channel, or do you have a Native American month?? I think not. I do not think Adrianne is raacist by any means, I think she proves a very vaulable point. So many people want to claim "oh i deserve this or that because my great great great great great great grandma was a slave" and yet they know nothing about thoses times, nor do they have respect for their elders. And further more, if you ^^^(up there) want to slander Adrianna for saying nigger, get around a bunch of African American men, and you may be shocked to hear that they call each other that!! "Whats up my nigga" so don't even pull that crap!! You know what, after reading this whole article and for the fact that I am Native American myself, I totally agree with Adrianne.
