Recently CNN aired the 2nd edition of Black in America hosted by Soledad O'Brien. The piece featured stories from various members of the black community. Theroot.com and blackweb20.com hosted a watch party at Busboys and Poets in Washington, DC. The sites gathered together a host of young black professionals, including checktheweather.net co-founder, Kari Fulton for a panel to discuss the documentary and if they thought it translated to their own realities of being Black in America. Fulton takes a unique approach at looking at the documentary by connecting the issues back to our environment, the one topic Black in America never really discussed.
Check out the Video of the discussion here:
Soledad O'Brien was also watching the live feed of this discussion, Check out an interview with Soledad discussing the controversial documentary series:
Oh and to our Latino homies: Don't worry CNN is getting ready to generalize then summarize your culture too. Latino in America comes out this October
