Are we really going to dumb down the conversation to this level and play stupid?
Miley Cyrus is CLEARLY making a very painfully obvious attempt at appropriating portions of african american youth culture...no the entirety of black culture doesn't revolve around "twerking 24/7" (not anymore than the entirety of specific latin cultures revolve around salsa music or sensual latin dances), but the segment that is...the segment that anybody in tuned enough with contemporary black youth culture to even spend a minute of their time posting in THIS forum is well familiar with...Miley is pretty shamelessly attempting to wear as a costume of "otherness" in a transparent effort to shed her Disney Channel image...it appears for anybody with an iota of sense, to be an concerted effort on the part of her (and her handlers) and the label in charge of her music
To her credit...or whatever credit you can assign to such things...she has flat out said as much

I didn't know Stan Van Gundy had a daughter 
lmao. innocent until proven guilty i supposed but this chick hannah said she was trying to be black. therefore, this is her idea of what it's all about. doesn't matter if it's misrepresented or totally inaccurate, she said she wanted to do black music and THIS is what she did.

Haley was dead on about miley using black women as accessories and props though.

That's disappointing man, we need to display a little bit more self-respect and stop letting people shyt all over what they deem to be our culture.

Not acting black
What's black culture? . In another thread nikkas was talking about how twerking came from Africa, now they're distancing themselves from the shyt as if it has no black roots. Consistency is all I ask for. Then there was the thread about ABC's crack journalism and black twitters response. Now twerking isn't black culture at all 
. The shyt doesn't work both ways. If it ain't black, black people should feel no type of way about white people butchering it.

A better question is, does BET represent what's in the best interest of Black people. It's no coincidence that they removed all the news shows and replaced them with less informative programming. If you don't own and control how you will be presented, then what difference does it make if you call it BET.
So BET ain't a black channel cuz cacs own it
