MTV's Fight for your rights.

[Pave-Low]

This is mainly a question but I do want to say I think they are doing a good thing and there shows on discrimantion and all like Flipped are really good.

I was watching mtv and their Muslim FFYR commerial came on. It has a white girl asking question that some may ask a muslim. Im not sure if all the question were ment to be portrayed as Racist questions or not, but one of the questions was:

Why do muslim women where vails (or whatever)

I thought, how is that racist? Several other questions where questionable as well. Im asking this question so I can eliminate some of my ignorance. All Im saying is, I think you should ask questions like that. after all ignorance is halve of whats wrong with the world today. I hope everyone understands what im saying. I know wh ythey do, but I mean alot of people dont.

Like I said Im not disapproving of FFYR or anything, Im just asking, How are some of the questions racist. But then again, I could hjave misunderstood comletly. Like I said Im just trying to rid myself of some ignorance. As should we all.

Well I think what they mean by Muslim women wearing vails is a sign of stereotyping.... as if all muslim women wore vails, which they don't.... kinda like the girl that was talking...

Anyway, I support MTV 100% on FFYR, hence why there is always a link in my sig to it.

[color=crimson][size=1]I sincerely hope that the world is like that one day (but not before we wipe out terorrism and dictatorships).

Still...the world is a long way from being that understanding and peaceful I'm afraid. It's unfortunate...but I think that our generation can really help to change it. Our parents' generation is too old to do much about it now...

But when we're all older, it'll be us who has control of these matters. :)[/color][/size]

I see, I think I understand now. Like I said before Ignorance is the main problem. People who discrimanet others are just ignorant if not stupid people. If they were not, they would see that there is no reason to be like that. I too wish for the same, but I fear a day like that can not exist because as long as we are on this earth, we will have to live with evil. And where evil resides no good can either.

i've never seen this, but it sounds interesting. maybe i'll break one of my cardinal rules of life & turn on mtv.

[Pave-Low]

You should Lady. Its one of the few decent, meaningfull things they show on tv. I almost wish everyone should be forced to watch it. I will admit, I used to feel a little weird around gay people, but after seeing MTV's Flipped, it changed my whole perspective. The one about, For race and nation was a good one as well. The really get you thinking when you see people murdered just because they are black.
