It is funny, I was in graduate school at Savannah College of Art and Design and had to write a thesis for an art class (can’t remember the name of the class off hand but it was a lecture not studio course) and as the only black (which was the case in most of my classes, whole other story) I got this odd feeling that I was expected to write about black images in the media by other students and even the professor, like because I was black people were waiting on me to write that. Of course being the person that I am I ended up writing about something else, lol. I can totally understand where you are coming from about black imagery though, just like most of us don’t like and use technology right?

That is so, so true. Sites like Afronerd, Invisible Cinema, Undercover Blackman and others are propmoting deep thought and entertainment that stretch beyond the BS images that supposedly represent Blacks in the mainstream media.
