Carmen over at Racialicious brought this little bit of information to my attention:
MTV's new Laguna Beach will be in Brooklyn. MTV is working on a new series that will "paint an accurate picture for America of what life is like for the average Brooklyn high school student." (Ah, because they did such an awesome job showing what life is like for the average Orange County high school student.) They've picked H.S. 430 Brooklyn Technical High School, better known as Brooklyn Tech. I have to echo Carmen's skepticism: "How much do you bet the show will revolve around a group of white kids, with occasional appearances from a token black friend? Even though the school is
49% Asian?"
