Why aren't "race movies" shown on TV?? I realize that many of the films were destroyed due to poor preservation(or lack there of), but many exist.

BET, TV-one should consider showing these movies.

I agree. I remember when, in BET's infancy, race movies were shown all the time. I was entranced as a kid. I wish there were a channel devoted to them exclusively.
