Hotep Heroes Series... Black Panther
I called it back in October, when I put out the call to ABSOLUTELY protect Chadwick Boseman at all costs. [ link ] The upcoming movie Black Panther is an event to us. It is finally the chance to see Black Excellence in cinema. Yes, we last visited the idea of Black Excellence with October’s Marshall, but comparative attention should be paid here. As of when I type this sentence, Marshall has cleared only $10.1 domestic, not even covering the cost of production, while Black Panther broke Fandango’s advance ticket sales record the day they went on sale. So back to it… Black Excellence. Portrayal of someone who looks like us as royalty. Royalty to be admired, royalty of unimaginable wealth, physical ability, intelligence and respect. Compare this to the slaves, dope fiends, coons, criminals and philanderers “they” love to bankroll for us usually. Black Excellence. The enthusiasm is palpable, people who don’t even CARE about comic book movies are talking ab
Great Moments in Black History - Family Matters Edition
The date was January 29, 1993… Wait, hold on a second. Y’all remember Family Matters, right? The show was a spinoff of Perfect Strangers, apparently the black lady who worked with them at the newspaper had a hilarious family with a more hilarious neighbor and showrunners decided that their show and their random negrous shenanigans would be more interesting in the long run than Larry Appleton and Balki Bartokomous. The whole show got aped by the popularity of the aforementioned neighbor and “Family Matters” fell victim to the phenomena of black people referring to shows by the name of the most popular character on the show as the title instead of actually mentioning the show itself by its actual title. [ Phlip note : yes, this was a real thing, I shit you not] Anyway… As at least one of the two of you may recall, the show began with three children; Eddie, Laura and Judy Winslow. In the 4 th season, it is rumored that the real-life parents of the youngest
True Story©... The Big Payoff pt I
Okay, so I bombed the fuck out in that interview a couple of weeks ago and no one came to my defense financially. I was left with little recourse. I was forced with the ideas of either franchising my dick or flipping what little money I did have into the streets. Well there’s a couple of problems with those… 1 – Franchising my weewee, even if in a COMPLETELY professional manner, would be in violation of my home situation and things could become less than cool. and… 2 – I don’t know the people I once knew to just go all Breaking Bad and shit. So I am left to use what I got to get where I want. And man, FUCK am I far from “where I want” right now. Shit, I even tried to rob Santa Claus ! Wayment… That’s IT! Sanctions on North Korea to make them poorer have ATTEMPTED to shackle their trade of one of their main commodities; coal. Since I landed myself on the permanent naughty list with the aforementioned attempt to jux Santa, I someh
