WHY gwt all angsty about it?
I don't see, for example, the folk music community getting all focus groupy and quota-y about their ethnic listenership or likewise the asian community trying to attract more people into Bollywood movies, there are, frankly, better things to get all concerned about than how much melanin the average b3tan carries in their skin cells.

If you wanted to start a SERIOUS debate on race you might want to question why their are a greater proportion of afro caribbeans in prison or that afro caribbeans are a dan sight more likely to be sectioned into institutional care.

Why then get all middle class liberal angsty about then...

I think I'm missing the point,

This is what I'm on about.
I'm *not* angsty about it. This is the kind of comment I'm looking for. I'm not sure I agree, but at least you've thought about it.

What is this?
some third rate media studies group discussion?

We discuss norks, and drinking, and bigotted opnions of people who are not the same as us.
Oh, and we also discuss bumming a lot for some reason.

Then why be so concerned with b3ta's ethnic breakdown?

To be honest
I'm not.

Then I believe we have a concord on something.
