they have their own awards shows because they were rarely recognized on the "regular" ones because even if it's not intentional, white wins.
I don't care whether there's a black emoji or not. But to seriously call out a corporation on something that wasn't even on ANYONE'S radar? That making a bad name for yourself. That's basically saying that you're so insecure with your race that you feel misrepresented when you can't text a picture of a super small black guy to your friend.
it was clearly on some people's radar, you can't say it was on nobody's radar because they spoke up.
nobody cared about a thing until people card about it! ugh!

Man, care about it or don't, but pick a position.
HINT: if you don't care about it, then shut your fat yawp and quit posting about it.
what do you mean and now?
white artists and actors still get more praise than their black counterparts
see: Macklemore, Iggy
i bet if you did some math, the percentage of wins per the percentage of actors, per the percentage of actors per population of each demographic is pretty comparable.\\
The united states is 77% white people. Of course more white people are gonna be around doing stuffs and getting stuffs. Theres more of them.
BTW, we don't live in the 1950s anymore. For the most part, everyone is treated exactly the same now, regardless of race. The people that are holding their race back are the people who make stupid claims like this. If you want to be treated equally, act equal. There may be a few dickheads out there that truly are racist and will do anything to prevent another race from taking anything from them, or excelling and making them an equal, but for the most part, people don't care anymore.
"as a white dude, I have never excperienced racism so I don't think it happens anymore"

It's admirable that you try and treat people equally, regardless of race.
However, generalizing your attitude to the general population is dangerously wrong. For example, most people have above room temperature IQs.
Because Beyoncé and Kanye West haven't won awards where white people have been nominated in the same category.
You're funny. So not true at all. I can give you my family as example if needed.
Why would I comment on something that I know absolutely nothing about.

if anything, that clark doll thing supports racism being a real thing rather than a societal construct.
and the population group you're going to run into on the internet is likely inherently
a) weathier, as to afford internet access
b) from less rural areas, such that internet access is available
c) more educated, such that they are smart enough to use the internet.
the really really dumb people, dont fit any of those, and thats like 50% of the population.

it's not as though those kids were isolated from society before the experiment, even young kids pick up on those values, even if they don't understand them. things like that their race is only or mostly the bad guy, the hero is white. the pretty dolls are white because white beauty standards are the norm.
