The Black Community Is No Longer Fooled By Shonda Rhimes




 The Black Community Is No Longer Fooled By Shonda Rhimes


Ever heard the saying:' Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me'. Well, that's how the black community feels towards screenwriter, Shonda Rhimes. Don't know who Shonda Rhimes is? I'm glad you asked. Ms. Rhimes is a  African American screenwriter, director, and producer. Rhimes is best known as the creator, head writer, executive producer and showrunner of the medical drama television series Grey's Anatomy, its spin-off Private Practice and political thriller series Scandal. In May 2007, Rhimes was named one of TIME magazine's 100 people who help shape the world. Rhimes was an executive producer for the medical drama series Off the Map which aired on ABC for one season in 2011. Recently, Rhimes serves as executive producer for ABC's new legal series How to Get Away with Murder, which debuted September 25, 2014.

The black community is very proud of Ms. Rhimes especially because she's an black woman that has broken the glass ceiling for African Americans in the television arena. Yes! We can not express how delightful we are of this. Although, the black community maybe joyous that a black woman has paved the way for other black people in the screenwriting industry, STILL there are questions that we would like to ask Ms. Rhimes.

Today, Shonda Rhimes is known in every black household in America as one of the most popular screenwriter . Sadly to say, you wouldn't be able to distinguish her ethnicity if we hadn't told you, because her shows discredit the black woman frequently. Don't quite understand what I'm saying?

Well, take a look at this...

 Unknowingly, Shonda Rhimes was just coming on the screen when she wrote and produced Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice. The black community didn't know too much of Ms. Rhimes when these two shows aired. Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice, were both created of actors and actress  racially diverse. For those reason alone, you are excused Shonda Rhimes. And shame on the black community for not knowing you prior to this. However, your shows Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder, we, the black community are not excusing you Shonda Rhimes. This is where the famous saying: 'fool me once, shame on you; fool twice, shame on me'  comes in.

Shonda Rhimes continues to discredit the black woman as a ' professional educated 'whoremorger' woman that lacks morals and self-worth.  The character Olivia Pope is perhaps the smartest and intellectually black woman portrayed on television, but this character displays 'home-wrecker' tendencies that breaks up happy homes and marriages. Why do this Ms. Rhimes? This may be the reason why the recent low TV ratings from Scandal. Anyway, Rhimes has the power to display the black woman as royalty, instead she decides to display the black woman as sidepieces. Shame on you Shonda Rhimes.

The same thing goes for How to Get Away with Murder. Rhimes, with the power and knowledge that she possess as a screenwriter continues to partnered the main character who is a black woman, with a Caucasian male. Again, shame on you Shonda Rimes. The black community is baffled with this continuous act from Ms. Rhimes and we aren't pleased with it.

Message to Shonda Rhimes: can you for once cease the utilizing of a color-blind casting technique, adding roles that glorify homosexual couples,  and try utilizing an all black cast and stop downgrading the black woman. If you do this Shonda Rhimes, the black community will support your shows even more.

  2. Cast successful balck women with a successful white man after several encounters in the community , one day ask her out than after a couple of years counting, they marry. He had fallin in love with her and she with him, a billionaire. Not a burger king of man worried where he will get his next meal and lay his head. Show them thriving in the community's and not for just sex. Show the birth of children and the love they have for diversity. Show how the ex the white women would try to break the family because of her whore mungging reputation and gold digger intentions, but re hubby did not allow that temptation, show a happy ending
