The creator of the television show Friends, Marta Kauffman, will part ways with $4 million to make up for the lack of diversity in the program that ended in 2004.

Kauffman is sorry there were too many white people in Friends and has pledged to donate $4 million to fund African and African American studies at Brandeis University as a result.

A $4 million apology for not casting enough diverse performers in a show that began in 1994. Got it.

"I've learned a lot in the last 20 years," Kauffman said. "Admitting and accepting guilt is not easy. It's painful looking at yourself in the mirror. I'm embarrassed that I didn't know better 25 years ago."

Where's the donation from the creator of What's Happening?



Good Times
Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
The Cosby Show
A Different World
Martin
Family Matters
Sanford and Son
227
Living Single
Sister, Sister
Roc
Moesha
Everybody Hates Chris
Amen
The Parkers
My Wife and Kids
Hangin' with Mr. Cooper

All these shows were probably comprised of 95% black main characters. Who cares?

He actually does have massive qualifications though I see what that would be hard to believe. Resume is actually really impressive.

I've prepared for this moment in a technical sense for a decade. Graduating with not one but two degrees from MIT led to working at multiple think tanks where I produced the first-of-a-kind reports and maps on consent-based siting and advanced reactor innovation.

To clarify, I am not a Biden appointee (despite what was reported) and instead serve as a career employee in the Senior Executive Service - I intend to be serving my country in this role through many many presidencies.
Sounds like he knows what he is doing and is very qualified.

Looks like a total fruitcake and I would never argue that but for this role he's plenty qualified. I hate diversity hires for the sake of diversity. I'm ok with really qualified candidates getting jobs regardless of what they look like…even if they look like fruitcakes.

the party of "white supremacy" expanded its minority base in the last 5 years..

Strongly doubt Republicans are unhappy that a few Hispanic Americans are joining their party .

As it is inevitable that Hispanics will soon be the dominant force in American politics .

many Republicans are indifferent or even welcoming but there are some that thought Trump spent too much time and effort trying to gain ground with the minorities and they resented that..

I welcome the strong conservative hispanic movement. Same for the blacks.. Both groups have history of being conservative minded people

It's not fake, it's a vacuum...and a little fake. But as someone doing the COVID thing for the 4th time there is probably some truth to the statement. I also managed to get 4 co workers sick so theres that.
