Ok, now apply this same standard to mainstream hip hop and Black Panther.
What about Black Panther 2?
Too soon, man...too soon.
Fauxcahontas spoke to the DNC Native American Caucus.
No you're thinking of Talcum X.
The criticism doesn't even make sense without going balls-to-the-walls racist & crazy. Minstrel shows were preformed by whites wearing black make-up. What she's saying is every black person at the RNC is actually white and pretending to be black.
If her criticism was to make any sense, she'd have to call it a 'reverse minstrel show', where black people pretended to be white
In reality, you had black people, who are being black, and espousing conservative opinions.
They're not voting for Joe Biden, that means they ain't black
The final arbiter of race: Joe Biden.
Incorrect. Minstrel shows were performed mostly by blacks, who wore make up to exaggerate their features, as was common in all old theaters with their primitive and dim lighting. These shows featured song, dance, and often rather earthy humor.
Just as whites adopted and/or adapted blues and jazz, some whites, too, got into doing minstrelsy (and Jews, hello, Al Jolson).
Just as Thomas Sowell relates that the historically black colleges and universities suddenly went on a black-only hiring binge, so too, starting in the 1930s, did a bunch of people (almost all Leftists) start to decide that black people making fun of themselves was Politically Incorrect. This is what killed Amos & Andy (an undeserved death which Smokey Robinson once lamented).
For more on the unwritten law against black comedy, let Jimmie Walker tell you.
Whoa.
That makes a ton of sense, actually.
...
Yeah, he's right. They would have killed him.
If we're going to start pointing the minstrel-show-finger, I'd point it at BLM. It's been months since I saw a black BLM supporter on my screen. They're white 20-somethings now.
