This program was not groundbreaking to me. It was mostly negative. It was like an extension of the evening news. All things Negative about black people. I live in the Bronx, and I didn't see anyone on the program like me... If the people that Solidad reported on weren't poor and deprived, they were highly educated and doing very well for themselves. I've worked at my current job for the last 22 years, yes I struggle sometimes, and I am single. But I do what I have to do for my family, always have with little complaints. I send my daughter to private school so i have to sacrafice having a car. I live in a cooperative building, and most of my friends and associates are something like me. That program made it seem like there is nothing good about being black.. I don't even want to see what Solidad and her CNN crew is going to report about the BLACK MAN. Lord help us! I love my people and yes there are a lot of blacks that are down trotted. There are also lots of blacks that do well for themselves, but believe me, there is a much broader range of black people in America that was not shown on this so called groundbreaking program. THUMBS DOWN ! O' Brian and CNN! You're not much better then fox news.
