Yup. As I said in another post, the 90's was a far better time in general for black people on TV and movies than today. NY Undercover, Living Single, Fresh Prince, Martin, Wayns Bros., In Living Color...just to name a few, there were sooooo many more gems.

Black and Latino high school students only exist to challenge brand new white teachers and then grow to love them while, in the end, teaching the teacher the most meaningful lessons of all.

True story: the 90's were much much better for black people on TV and movies than today. Like waaay better.

It’s a great way to pat ourselves on the backs. “We don’t own people anymore! Isn’t that great? All our problems are solved.”

Yes, but all of that is unrelated to his race. Their issues are all related to who each person is/what they’ve been through, not a result of skin color.

I think a shitload of people look at the brutality depicted in films about slavery and think: “See, that would be something to complain about. Comparatively, they’ve got it so good now and still they complain, complain, complain!”

Ice Cube: “Maybe we should have put a slave in Staight Outta Compton.” 5:00 mark.

They do, but only to terrible schools where they are about to drop out until some middle-age white man having a mid-life crisis really connects with them.

You know what I would love? More movies with black people just being people. Like dramas, character pieces, etc., with black people just being normal people, you know, like we are in real life. Not “black movies” (stay away Tyler Perry. Stay far, far away). Not slavery movies. Not Straight Outta Compton. Not Boyz in…

Yes, but that’s not really the point. Her friend was killed because of her ex boyfriend's anger towards her decision to break off the relationship. This is a fear women face while dealing with controlling significant others. It is an unfortunately reality that we have to deal with.

Hahaha I fucked my sisters future over because we’re moving back to a country where women don’t have rights....because it’s all about ME.

Fuck that. This was the best thing that ever happened to this kid, and he was in no way ‘damaged’ to the point of 15 million dollars.

he won’t, and now the kid looks like a money-grubbing asshat.

I am starting to feel this way, too. It’s looking more and more like a circus/money grab by his father.

I feel like this kid is Kony 2012ing us

i might be wrong

but i already learned my lesson and have an embarrasing tshirt that I’ll never wear in public so
