Article Abstract:
The concept of the need for black role models in society excaberates racism as it implies that blacks lack motivation. Black role models are usually entertainers for the benefit of white society. This highlights society's belief that blacks are incapable of achieving any other status. The existence of black role models necessitiates the need for black antitheses, such as the US heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson, charged with rape. It is white domination and racism which prevents black ambition.
