199199, do you think it is not feasible? Posted by Joe Corn Mo, Mon May-12-14 04:19 PM
when i think about the way tv impacted me, i wonder if it was healthy.
i wouldn't want my kid watching tv until they had at least started to develop their own critical thinking skills.
i don't like the way black ppl are typically portrayed on tv. i don't like the way women are typically portrayed on tv. i don't like the way new chanel's and talk shows frame matters of national and local interest.
i don't like the portrayal of cops, the military, foreign countries, or minorities on tv.
i don't like most of the music i hear, or most of the videos i see. and i think that putting a black child (especially a black girl) plopping a black child front of a TV set would lower their self esteem, give them an ideal standard of beauty that doesn't look like them, and encourage them to accept assumptions about themselves and the world that i don't think black children should accept.
maybe i'd let them watch soul train and michael jackson videos lol.
but seriously, i don't think it would be difficult to keep a television away from my child. one of the first steps would be to not have a tv in the house (which i didn't have for many years.)
