It has a racial element to it absolutely, but I didn't really see any depictions of stereotypes or... Negative implications about black people. Obviously the drunk father could be seen as problematic, but I really don't know. What were some of the arguments on Slate? Watch it entirely to see this little girl... She's…

Oh my god heritage minute. Or those ads about the war of 1812. Starring Laura Secord, maker of fine chocolates!

Oh thanks! I love me some Canada but we can do extremely stupid things. We're just not in YOUR news as much so it seems like we're very sweet and quiet and nicey nice, but we've got our demons. Bacon flavoured though they may be :)

Really? All I got was purposefully mean spirited. Maybe I'm wrong...?

Yo man as a Canadian I will be the first to point out we do horrible things too, we have moments of being incredibly fucked up. Case in goddamn point. You don't have to support the ruling to recognize our country can be damned stupid too. Not all it's people, but the courts and government, yes. And no country…

It's from the movie! But yeah... sorry... :)

You're my friend kinda

Thank you :)

Who else is going to watch the FUCK out of the Nick Carter/young Gallagher crime show? When is it on again?

They cast more or less an all black cast for Lion King. So I have some confidence they'll take into consideration what's needed in terms of casting... Although it depends on the director I guess... We'll have to wait and see!

Fuck! Yes! Thank you!

It's not my fault I'm so popular!

Oh my goodness no no. It's fine. Difference of opinion makes the world go round! Thanks for the great mental image though, hahaha.

SHE DOESN'T EVEN GO HERE.

One of my favourite English profs made us write our names and give all relevant info at the bottom of our bibliographies when we handed in papers to avoid this exact thing. She wanted to grade totally blind. Maybe they could get younger students to write their names on the back of tests/quizzes or something similar?

Yikes, Im starting to feel like I shouldn't have put that up. THE ONLY PART OF THAT POST that I personally wrote was the first line "the video makers sums up his argument nicely" and that's IT. The rest of that is the video maker. I don't even 100% agree with his points, but I thought it made sense to post them to add…

That was still his position? The only part of the post that is mine is "the video maker sums up his position nicely." I actually don't totally agree with it even, I just put it up for others to see.
