McD's Launches 'Black' Web site

At McDonald's, we believe that African-American culture and achievement should be celebrated 365 days a year — not just during Black History Month. That's the idea behind 365Black.com. It's a place where you can learn more about education, employment, career advancement and entrepreneurship opportunities, and meet real people whose lives have been touched by McDonald's.

Blacks are much more racist than whites. I will never go to mcd's again. If they want to be black they can be black. Whites should quit apologizing for stuff that happened years ago. Let them rise to a mature level and then we will start to recognize them.

Well, this is just ridiculous...I expect to see cultural diversity, not singling out one race over another...McD's is singling out the black community why? Is their history any more or less important than other races? Is their contribution any more or less than other races? Perhaps a better approach would be a web site celebrating the American tradition and contributions from all races and ethnicities. But I guess that would be too much trouble for McD's.

I don't care anymore. If McDonalds wants to do it, then by all means let them do it. I have never liked McDonalds, and feel no outrage by this site. I simply do not care anymore for the sensitivity on the race issue. We all need to grow up, realise there are people of different color, and be gratefull that we don't all look the same. If anyone thinks one race should have a website, then let them have it, it dosent insult me.

I thought that the people in America were Americans. Why are we concentrating on just one aspect of society? There are other groups in America like American Indians, Hispanics, Italians, Germans, French, Russians, Japanese, etc. and the list goes on. Singling out one group only seeks to add to the problem of division among all the people in America. We are all Americans and all of us need to start thinking like that.

Why do we still have a "black history month"? Shouldn't it be "American History month"? It's racist to call them just "black", we are all Americans and we share the same history. MLK is a great leader for ALL of us. Rosa Parks is an inspiration to ALL of us! It shouldn't be a one-way street, let's get rid of placing people in different classes/categories. We ALL are Americans.

I see nothing wrong with this new web site but I have to ask one question of McDonald's Where is the site for the Asians, or the Native Americans, or for the Caucasians? And why stop there. Why not a sirte for all the different religions or for all the different nationalities? It is brianless moves like this that just add fuel to the fire of racism. I guess it is time to check out what Burger King has on the menu.

A site targeted at Native americans would be an international issue as Native american populations are sovereign
Are Caucasian? . Or are you irish, polish, italian etc? Each country has a site If McD's had an issue with irish american franchise ownership in predominately irish american neighborhoods im sure they would do the outreach as any good business would. This has nothing to do with the thought of superiority of one ethnic group over another which is what racism is.
