Not proud of the way CM writers had Morgan dealt with racial remarks from an unsub “I bet you had to work extra hard to get into the bureau, didn’t you? Probably still have to prove yourself in a regular basis.” “You damn Half-breed!” and also in Identity the racist man in bar, “I never understood how someone like you..” “..could trust someone like me?” “How is the federal government ever help your people.” “They are five other members in your team, look around you, why the hell did they sent you here?”

I don’t like this 7.15, for many reasons.

Why would the writers write a racially motivated episode and air it in Black History month? I see this as a slap in the face to African Americans who celebrate and cherish this month. 

Why is it always have to be Morgan, the only African American in the team, on a show that’s on a network that have shows with mostly White leading characters, why would CM writers have Morgan dealt with racial slurs and hate from racists unsubs and racist Sons of bitches? 

CM writers you failed.
