No kidding. But that’s not gonna stop Roland from trying!
So what did @REALStaceyDash say now? https://t.co/AfuJfIcbVB

As Twitchy reported, actress and Fox News contributor Stacey Dash was blasted over this:
“We have to make up our minds. Either we want to have segregation or integration. And if we don’t want segregation, then we need to get rid of channels like BET and the BET Awards and the Image Awards where you’re only awarded if you’re black,” she said. “If it were the other way around, we would be up in arms. It’s a double standard.”
The “Clueless” actress continued: “There shouldn’t be a Black History Month. You know? We’re Americans. Period. That’s it.”
How dare she say such a thing! Who does she think she is? Morgan Freeman?
Well, Roland Martin, for one, isn’t going to stand for it. And that’s why he’s unleashed a torrent of tweets sure to put Ms. Dash in her place:
Now y'all know @REALStaceyDash is on this earth for comedic relief! https://t.co/xV84QMD262

I really need @REALStaceyDash to do some damn research before she goes on @FoxNews. Stacey, the @naacpimageaward IS NOT limited to Blacks.
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
Hey @REALStaceyDash, America Ferrara is an @naacpimageaward. She's not Black. Sandra Oh has been nominated. She's not Black.

Hey @REALStaceyDash @foxnews, @jtimberlake has been nominated EIGHT TIMES for a BET Award. I know. Facts are so pesky. #OscarsSoWhite
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
Hey @REALStaceyDash @FoxNews, guess who won an @naacpimageaward last year? @robinthicke. Last I checked, he's white. I know, pesky facts.
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
Hey @REALStaceyDash, @JLo won a BET Award and was nominated for @naacpimageaward. Oh, she's not Black. Geez. Can you do some research?!
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
.@REALStaceyDash says there should not be Black networks or awards shows. So why has she done interviews/photo spreads w/Black magazines?
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
Hey @REALStaceyDash. Did you tell @FoxNews you attended the 2011 @NAACP Theatre Awards? I know. Pesky facts! pic.twitter.com/JheCjiB445

Fam, I don't care if @REALStaceyDash takes a position, but don't be a hypocrite about it. She likes Black media/events when it suits her.
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
I recall when I was the news editor of Savoy Magazine and I edited a piece on @REALStaceyDash. Oh, yea, Savoy was a Black magazine.
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
Wait. Is that @REALStaceyDash on the cover of @GetJETmag with Damon Wayans promoting Mo' Money? Wow. Black magazine. pic.twitter.com/RTgSUAtFhj
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
So Stacey: Why have you done Black magazine photo spreads and interviews if you were right today? https://t.co/yoyuJ1acNT
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
How am I filled with anger? @REALStaceyDash made a comment. I countered with facts https://t.co/TVJkgWvdN9

Hey @REALStaceyDash! That was a pretty smooth cover shoot for the Black men's magazine Smooth! #OscarsSoWhite pic.twitter.com/OIAnRA1bz5
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
Now @REALStaceyDash! I didn't know you were on Smooth's cover – twice! The brothers were feeling you, huh?! pic.twitter.com/kRdE7V0LZs

This is the ULTIMATE @REALStaceyDash magazine cover! A Black magazine called Pride. *mic dropped* #ByeFelicia pic.twitter.com/wBfrpuLqeO

See @REALStaceyDash. I'm a journalist. I went to school for this stuff. This isn't an act. I drop facts on TV. Try it sometimes. SERIOUSLY.
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
OK.
I'm not tearing down @REALStaceyDash. I'm just stating clear, undeniable facts which totally contradicts her words. https://t.co/jc1Q6bkvUw
— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 20, 2016
Actually, Roland, sounds like your ascot may be wound just a leetle too tightly. Might be time to step back for a bit and find a hobby.
Actually, you're a grown man who ended a previous tweet with *mic dropped*. So, ya know. https://t.co/d6EkmSVnFv

If you're trying to make more men admire @REALStaceyDash, this is perfect https://t.co/rnEDZbn0kq
