Youtube will have a 100 million dollar reparation fund for monetized black Youtubers

Postby Netherrealmer » 20 Jun 2020, 09:33

The most successful Youtubers are either White or Asians so Youtube will now try to make it easier for Black Youtubers to get monetized. Also Monetized Black Youtubers will receive reparations so they can earn more money since they struggle more to get sponsors. It is their way to be more inclusive and diverse. They will earn extra compensation since they struggle to get views more compared to White and Asian tubers.

I can see more Black Youtubers to appear on the recommended tab now.

I think this is racist. This is clear giving some advantage because of skin color. I mean, black people could join Youtube in same time as white and Asians. Maybe it is their fault if they are not good as other youtubers.

Maybe some algorithm should check video quality and give some more data.

If that's the case there are some in my family who might have a hard time "proving" their blackness since they don't look it. Michael Jackson's daughter says she considers herself black. If people did not already recognize her face what would they say if she showed her face for her YouTube channel and claimed she was black. Just sayin'.

Now it makes me think if White passing biracials will be counted as black. Halsey the singer's dad is Black but her mom's genes are just too strong.

A dark skinned South Asian Youtuber can simply curl their hair and claim they are black to qualify for the reparations. There was an American born Indian guy who is Christian so he have English last name, he shaved his hair off, claims he is black and got qualified for an African American scholarship.

I get what you're saying. That's why my first comment was just one word. "Interesting."

I suppose I could have added a few emojis for ... Duh? Huh? Confused. Crazy. Question marks ?????? :lol:

Do you know what I think when I hear reports that mention an astronomical amount of money for a "Fund"?

I think it's a money laundering scheme. :lol: I do!

I THINK: Eh! You just created something so that on the books it looks LEGIT. But you're siphoning off money and sending it to a Swiss bank or an offshore account somewhere.

No really! That's the thought that always crosses my mind. It's just a bogus set up funding bank accounts for CROOKS and THIEVES! :lol: People can get very creative when they want to hide money or "convert" it to lawful income. That's why Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) was created. To follow the money!

Hmmm I'm not sure how I feel about that. No, actually, scrap that; I'll just put it out there - it makes ME personally feel uncomfortable. Like it's some sort of racial profiling, the let's jump on the we care about black people bandwagon but while we are at it, we'll turn them into a charity case and make it look like we are an equal opportunities organisation but actually, because they can't do it on their own, we'll give them a leg up, the sympathy vote for blacks, the let's use black people to make up the numbers and make ourselves look good in the process PR machine. Some black people may see it as a noble gesture but it's not for me. There, I said it.

A woman of my own heart. It sounds like a bleeping pity party. That's why I didn't even show up. Believe it or not Angie, many people see right through it, yeah. So noble that they can now go and love themselves. Keep making your speech and go through because it's always on point (and you keep it simply real). It doesn't get better than that. :thumbup:

Who is Susan?

Adjusting the recommended list based on race/ethnicity is a horrible idea, and could introduce the world to a new era of racism.

Edit:

It looks like Youtube is just supporting black creators, which is fine and likely needed. But I don't like the idea of the site taking race/ethnicity into account.

That is a good gesture. However, this should not continue for too long. Instead School and College education all over the world plus all Social Media must promote Racial equality and ending bias to make people go away from such discriminatory attitudes.
This is tough yet doable.

This fund will keep up the formation of the latest programming and assist with the development of black creators and artists. YouTube will carry on to address cyber bullying to design a conducive domain for black users to masterfully use the platform. This is due to the protest that has burst out globally to challenge police brutality and structured racism to Black Community. YouTube has assembled videos you can view to help assist funds to assist Black lives and protesters standing up against racism.

Yes, I agree with you. It is unfair to other YouTubers, who are not black. We all agree that it is the talent of the YouTubers and the quality of the videos or Vlogs that must be given precedence, and not the colour of the skin. This is a real discriminatory practice, and I totally abhor it. Besides, what about Asians like us - who are neither black nor white?

Educative videos let people see Youtube ads to complete a course and sometimes part of course stay 3 up to 6 hours to finish labelled with Udemy full course discount that's what explain this.

What does that having to do with Youtube trying to be woke with their Black members?

Well, what I meant was that the overall systems(yes, not just in one country) need to change. Many Indians talk as if we are unbiased and not racist but in some ways we too discriminate based on the skin color.
Only a few people are such who go beyond these things including I, but we are in a terrible minority the worldover.
