Alpha Blondy Posted January 28, 2013 this show is offensive. its created by the whites to further denigrate blacks and pollute the minds of blacks with its stereotypes and narrow representations of blacks. far from the ''satirical commentary'' of everyday life it has been described as. but very funny stuff.

underdog Posted January 28, 2013 Question is: What is the appropriate "black Identity"? You've mentioned the empowerment or denigration of "our collective will....what is "our collective will? do any two black people have the same image of what a socially responsible, cognitively mature black portrayal should be? or is it just a matter of emulating white behaviour? do "they" have it right? It might be easy to spot all the wrong traits but slightly more difficult to describe the 'way it should be" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
