Songstress21,
I think the point in boycotting a television show is to show that we are not going to support television shows that represent or glorify images based in racism.
Not watching a show affects its ratings, which affects the television company because if a show gets poor ratings, advertisers will not pay for airtime.
I also wonder how much you know about the NAACP because if you did then you will know that they do more than boycott, they also litigate suits on behalf of plaintiffs who allege discrimination.
AKATUDE,
Thanks for mentioning this, I never made the connection. I used to watch the show too.
