Shonda Rhimes made news this week when she declared she was done discussing the idea of racial diversity on TV, and her fellow Essence magazine cover star Issa Rae understands how Rhimes feels, she said on "The HuffPost Show" on Friday. The The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl author told hosts Roy Sekoff and Marc Lamont Hill: [Rhimes is] absolutely right that this is normal, that's a normal part of American society, so it makes sense that diversity should be represented on television.
