I think accusing metal of being racist for not having black people is like accusing rap music of being racist for not having white people. It's kind of silly and shortsighted.

And Eminem doesn't count.

Sage Francis

or is he technically hip hop?  I am stupid and do not know the difference.  Either way, the same race thing applies. Sage Francis is white in a black-dominated genre, and he's good stuff.

Reams have been written on the subject. It's culture. You get less black metalheads, and so less black people in metal bands. It's not active discrimination inside the metal scene, apart from a very few people, so much as people just not being interested.

So what you are saying is, METAL : HIP HOP :: HOCKEY : BASKETBALL
