Televison: A Way of Discrimination?

Lately, everybody watches tv. On tv we can see the news, intereseting (or not) programs.. What we don't see are presenters black or from other ethnics. If we are not a xenophobia society why most of the tv guys are white?

If you pay atention is very rare we see a black face on our tv... To be honest I don't remember the last time that I saw a black person presented the news or a program on tv.

Why doen't those people appeared on tv? They are like us , they have deffects and virtues. So why this discrimination happens?

According with the author of a study, the filmmaker Joel Zito Araújo, believes that no representation of black and other ethnic groups on television involves loss of self-esteem by the population, which does not fall within the "standards" of beauty. "The children of black or other ethnic group as you watch TV do not see anyone like the same yes. So, look in the mirror when it identifies itself as something not appreciated the aesthetic"explained the filmmaker.

I hope this discrimination doen't go on because we all should have the sames rights. This rights shoudn't be all theory (like they are) but practiced.
