If you have been watching ZNS, you would notice that they have a black history segment on every day. As well as a black cultural segment on, with the Black chanel which I think is in conjunction with Ebony/Jet.

ZNS has a power on anyone who has no other form of entertainment or education.

Besides thinking you are simple and unread...
One must first look at the backdrop then interpret...
The entire Western Hemisphere is celebrating the end of the English slave trade, I think its now marks 300 years. All English Caribbean nations moreso the world are hosting talks, veiwing programs based on the african slave trade...In fact, the Bahamas started putting on production since January...Perhaps you just don't know or dont care to realize the importance of what is happening during this time. Next month and the months to come you will be bombarded with information about Africa and the slave trade...
In fact, slavery exist today and morethanlikely the documentary will be about how we Bahamians can assist against the horrific practice!

Well I don't watch ZNS, so are you saying that it is a coincidence that a special on the slave trade is going to be aired?

It is not uncommon or extraordinary that is all.

nationbuilder 03-09-07, - 01:14 PM Well I don't watch ZNS...
LOL. Who does? :shaky:
bahamianpride 03-09-07, - 01:16 PM Well I don't watch ZNS, so are you saying that it is a coincidence that a special on the slave trade is going to be aired?
he's saying its not a coincidence...it has everything to do with the fact that the entire world is discussing the subject...why shouldn't we since slavery still exists in the bahamas and young immigrant boys and girls...are being kept like slaves as they travel through the bahamas...or are being prostituted for their freedom or travel costs....
please why would the show be propaganda?....if they played roots everyweek until the election...that would be propaganda
Alien 03-09-07, - 01:16 PM LOL. Who does? :shaky:
I do, sometimes...this is why I would not even mention this special, as extraordinary as anything else. Like someone else said on this thread, we celebrate black history every day.
:cheers:

Now why are you insulting me?
You are entitled to your opinion as I am mind.
Let’s not call people simple and unread just off the cuff hey.
That being said what I was pointing out is the timing of the said program.
If the program is as you say well then hey I will be wrong.
I am sure there are things going on in the world that you don't know about that I do, that does not make you simple nor unread OK!

Well you are wrong, because hobo is right...just did a little bit of searching.
This is a very special time world wide on the Slave Trade and the black world. Alot of functions. Aside from that, ZNS putting on black oriented programmes, is NOT uncommon. In fact, we should expect this.
:duh:

Listen I was merely pointing out the timing.
I think the PLP's defenders are making too much noise on this if it is just a coincidence though.
If I'm wrong I stand corrected.
