Gripe of the Day: PBS PTV Nudity

Perhaps one of the most infuriating, racist & offensive things that I have ever seen is the nudity that is allowed on PBS when they do shows on African villages and their culture. It has forever been against FCC rules to show human nudity on public television but their has always been an exception made for PBS coverage of so-called "third world" cultures. As a person of color, this infuriates me!!! What they are saying is that these people are sub-human and therefore a display of their nudity can not be considered a display of human nudity. It also goes further to imply that there is nothing sexual or attractive about a nude woman of color thus it is safe for viewing on the one channel that specializes in child programming - where children are likely to be the audience! The arguments against what they are doing are so obvious and so valid that it almost doesn't deserve discussion. I am so disgusted by the lingering supremest attitudes that persist that I just had to exhale a bit. Anywho, I'm vented.
