I've always had a problem with "Black" Miss America or "Black and Latino" music awards. I always wondered why there is no out cry like there would be if there was a "White" Miss America or the "White" music awards. My true opinion is to do away with labeling and cut out all the special interest awards and just have Music Awards or Miss America.

Well, if there hadn't been any such thing as slavery or the KKK or any of that nonsense, then I'm sure things would be very different today, as far as attitudes go. But, seeing as how those things are a part of all of our history, society deems it neccessary to have black clubs or asian clubs or whatever while frowning on whites who attempt to form the same kinds of clubs for themselves.
Seems that every once in a while some white guy/girl will spout off about how unfair this is and try to start their own 'group' but most often this is done for the wrong reasons, i.e., "well if they can do it then I can do it, too" and not actually because they have a need for such a group.
