HGTV

Reading the comments and looking at the winners for all the million dollar sweepstakes, does HGTV support minorities or BLM in any form?

HGTV is the BEST! I have watched HGTV since in junior high school with my darling architect aunt who has installed the love of renovation in my blood. Now, a proud physician assistant who flips home on my days off, I have continued the tradition with my own family.

Watching "The family Tree," with Ben and Erin find a man fixer-upper that was aired on 12/11/2022 {HGTVHD 229} with a homeowner who was moving back to town as an engineer I realized there is a pattern with HGTV and not only with this show. The pattern is regardless of the Black American occupation or status, they ALWAYS stick the African American on "the other side of the truck, (The black community) never integrating the two communities. The show prior to this one was a young white couple who come back into town from New York city after completing his residence and was moved into a great white Neiborhood with beautiful tree line, great manicure lawn, large space and excellent school. Whereas this young black engineer with a great career was place directly next to his mother's house (Less desirable Neiborhood) in which he was adamant he DID NOT WANT to do but, was pushed into and was convince into choosing, which turnout to be a disaster. This is a perfect example of "redlining" in housing, a practice of denying a creditworthy applicant a loan for housing in a certain neighborhood even through the applicant may otherwise be eligible for the loan." which is illegal. Sadly, his home will never yield the same equity turn-over as the other neighborhood and will continue systematically.

What I would like to see in the future is integration by placing black families into nice neighborhood too with tree lines, well-manicured lawn, great schools. Furthermore, please high light the married black successful individuals in your town looking for housing too. I am certain they are a few! In order to continue supporting this channel change will need to be administered; where it is essential to highlight success amongst the black community in our great nation.
