We as in African-Americans have been watching white television for years and years. They have gotten some of our children thinking they have to look a certain way in order to be accepted. Black television is well rounded and deals all sorts of topics. Tyler Perry's movies and plays are a hit in my household because of the truth behind it all.

You've got to see this stuff. Tyler's plays were raw when he first started. You knew he was going to be huge even way back then. http://www.daBruhs.com I’ve got some old unreleased Tyler Perry videos, I’m getting ready to post to the internet. You’ve got to see this stuff.

No one said a word when Tyler Perry started out on the stages across the country. Yes, my girlfriends and I saw his one man show in Cleveland, Ohio and we loved it...No reviews from many white people on that yet the theme crossed all color lines and we were proud to attend. It seems to me if Tyler Perry sells out his company to White corporations like most of the people of color do, who make it big, ...then there wouldn't be any problem, for them (white people that is) What type of role would white people play in Tyler Perry's production and why is my question? Further more, without sounding racist, I hope Tyler Perry and others can remain as they are in business. We had to fight and shed blood just to get to this point.. There are still plenty of movies that do not have African American roles or appearances...I for one love 'Bollywood Movies' but I don't complain about not seeing us on the screen! I just enjoy the movie!! Personally I think it is a ploy to “share the wealth”. No one said a word when Tyler Perry started out on the stages across the country.

Personally, I feel that all of his movies transcend beyond color and actually create an atmosphere that people of all races can thoroughly enjoy. If you want to speak about race just think about how many blacks and minorities are actually represented or shown on the Big 3 channels (ABC,CBS and NBC)? And the numbers are growing smaller each day. If the CW and BET stations weren't on the air then we would hardly have any actors, actresses, writers, or etc. So in my opinion, if Tyler Perry ever stopped making movies we would experience a total BLACK OUT at the box office.

GET OVER IT. For years I've sat and watched people (white people) live an easy good life. And they are the minorities. Tyler if it's drama that they want you know New Orleans got your back "Ya herd me." If it were true, then SO WHAT! GET OVER IT.

Where is the diversity in these movies! I can relate to Tyler Perry movies and plays because I see my families and friends, neighbors, etc. When I see movies that is about love written by or produce by white writers, I see one or two blacks, and even when the movie is written about saving the world I only see one or two blacks! So Please Tyler don't let these whites who are in control of the establishment tried to reverse what they do on you! I am not a racist but I am just tired of seeing on the movies , news, tv etc, that we have to see things only from the whites perspective! This country is too diverse.

Kudos to Tyler Perry I love him and his work. Now Tyler can i submit my film script to you? No pun intended, a full 13 week TV episode. Holla, I'm 72 years old but my mind is still open.

So don't believe what they say about white people not viewing the movies or the TV show.
