Disney Channel
Jessie Show Has White Kids Imitating Black Culture

My family have been fans of Disney channel for years but we've been noticing that more and more of your shows have adopted the urban vibe (black) on your show but it troubles us that your net work don't show many black kids, and mostly you always have the white and Spanish kids emulating black culture, fashions, dance, slang, mannerisms, etc. We are concerned about the effects that this has on black kids. This seems racist, that all this Hip Hop going on and not a strong black presence, blacks have created the greatest musical culture of the twentieth century and it's being exploited by a kids network, we think Disney is more creative than to have white kids act black to get ratings, please put more black kids acting black.

I have never seen a school of white kids with one or two black kids and the whole school acts black... I also was very offended where you aired a segment on the Jessie show where a young white kid wore black face??? Blacks are one of Disneys largest audiences, and we feel it's time to keep it real stop exploiting blacks
