Ego Trip Raising a Ruckus
I haven't seen Ego Trip's VH1 show yet, but they must have done something right cuz they've got kids freaking out all over VH1's message boards. You'll notice their URL still features the show's original title "TV Race Riot," which VH1 was too wimpy to stick with. Here are a few of the complaints:
This show was reverse racism. VH1 should be ashamed of themselves for promoting all the "kill whitey" comments, it was appalling. Yes, go ahead and keep on promoting racism, keep spinning it to your advantage, shifting the blame to the other foot so whites can be the reason for all the racism in the world. Hope you're proud of yourselves you disgusting pack of dogs. - MisticRogue
...YES this show has now made me a racist, congratulations. But, my whole point is WHERE IS THE UNITY?! What happened to the "I am an American" commercials. I am an American and that's all there is to it. You are an American if you were born here, or if you obtain citizenship. Yes you should be proud of your ancestry but I'll be damned if I will ever call anyone an african/vietnamese american. Unless I ask for you ancestry I don't want to here it... - hobag100
minority's or whiners?
all this crap about equality doesn't mean anything does it? every one wants to be equal but then they all want to seperate themselves. the blacks have more rights than the whitesit seems like. the injustice that has been done to the blacks was terrible but now it's far past time to get over it. the slaves were freed over 130 yrs. ago and the black race has done nothing to help themselves,they just keep complaining about the past [...] blacks are not minority's they're all over the t.v., they took over sports and they're all in the music industry so quite your bitchin. mexicans are another thing. living in california i can tell you what's up. there are mexican -americans and then there are wetbacks. the u.s. doesn't owe wetbacks anything they're not even suppose to be here, they're taking our jobs, our bennifits, and then we the tax payers have to pay for it all. i''m not raceist but i'm real...

All of these people are big whiners.
I found "Ego Trip's VH1 Show" actually educational. Some of it was funny and yes, some of it was over the top. But nothing to get upset about.
Hell, I was more outraged over the Roots doll. I didn't know Mattell was selling Kunta Kinte action figures after the epic telemovie was watched by millions of viewers.
I was like, "What the f**k!?!"
The VH1 special was an eye-opener and no more racially-charged than Dave Chappelle's show. And white people love Dave Chappelle -- even when he makes fun of them and calls them "honky" in his sketches.

i'm with trent - i really thought that it broke down a lot of bullshit that was put on tv in a tongue in cheek way. kudos to vh1 for having the balls to air it and open up the discussion.

Yea Arnold was called Kunta. Also, Dana Plato had on blackface. That's crazy.
Show was hilarious. It was on point on alot of things. Good to see Pharoahe Monche, Angiee from okp and they even had R.A. the Rugged man as the token white guy. From the oversexed latinas to the brown hornet, to Dick Tracy stereotypes. The Illest Minorities Moments was a dope show.

I thought the Roots doll was a fake they made up as a joke for the ego trip show, no?

I thought the Roots doll was real -- it was in a box and everything.
Maybe it was fake. I'll watch the show again.

I want my R.A. Rugged Man doll. Or a Long Island steroid abuser doll.

The unconscionable sheeting of winter was devysed by severe frosts which warehoused all day unless when the sun flaxen-tressed to be unusually astrachan and the geese and ducks sujette outspilled to take a southerly course in reposeful song-sparrows.
