I am watching "ER" now.
I can't help but feel that these "programs" are for programming people. As the watch to see " what comes next!" they are being trained in their roles. Just like when you do a problem(try to solve the conflict in the program) you check the back of the book(see if that's the way its played out in the show). The programs , even those with racial overtones, don't neccesarily show anything other than what's supposed to happen the refined edition of racism.
You ever watch these programs and can't help but see your predictions proved correct ? You know what's going to happen to Benton. You can alsmost see subtle plots work themselves out, over and over again. Afte a while, the show loses its "entertainment" value for me, because its like I can tell what's going to happen. I'm going to have to find something else to do.
However, it seems that they can be used scientifically to test your ability to decode. If you can make definate predictions and have them proven correct - just like in a lab, then you are getting better at counter-racist symbolic prediction.

The fact is..
I would be more than happy to discuss replacing "White Supremacy" with "Justice", but so far, from the sum of the evidence you have presented, and taking into account the attitudes and information from other Afrocentrics that have posted, all I can ascertain, (and I'm trying to be objective about this), is that you actually intend to replace White racism, (which has been intentionally mis-labled as "White Supremacy") , with what must surely be it's true opposite, "Black racism". (or quite possibly "Black Supremacy")
So far, you have been quite unsucessful at defining "White Supremacy" to a point where even an enlightened member of the general public would not be confused about it's meaning. I find it quite difficult to discuss a subject in terms that are still lacking a valid definition.
