Anyone watch this show? The creator sounded like an “everything is racist” type but I’ve had some people tell me that a few times some good points were made
From what I recall, the main character is a full-on black power advocate, but he's also shown to be ridiculous and/or wrong. A lot. And he's also shown to have enough other endearing qualities that you don't hate him for being an idiot.
Y'know, from the days back when writing was decent, and a show with strong messaging could still manage to have humility.
Of course, I'd probably be turned off by it entirely if I tried watching it again today, knowing what I now know about most of these types of writers. I have zero patience for it and give zero benefit of the doubt at this point, sadly.
I agree. I have zero patience for race discussions. I do remember an episode where MLK was really in a coma and woke up and was disappointed in black ppl. I guess they wouldn’t show that today
Probably because I'm not a yank, taking a wild guess: is BET Black Entertainment Television?
