Is MOBO awards racist towards white people?

[Ellegirly 74]

Hello
We are having a debate. In light of the recent MOBO awards (Music of Black Origin awards), does anyone out there believe it would possibly be construed as racist to have such an award ceremony that celebrated only white music or Music of White Origin?

Some people here think if the tables were turned white people would not be able to have such an award ceremony as it could upset people from other races/cultures.

What are people's general thoughts on this?

Yes I do belive the MOBO awards as racist. As you rightly point out, MOWO awards would be racist. But also are Black Policemen Associations, Black Bishops Associations are also just as racist?
