"Is this it!?!?, is this what I got all those ass whupping's for, I had a dream once, it was a dream that little black boys and little black girls would drink from the river of prosperity, freed from the thirst of oppression, but lo and behold some four decades later,, what have i found, but a bunch of trifling, shiftless, good for nothing niggas, and I know some of you don't want to hear that word, its the ugliest word in the English language, but that's what i see now...niggas!!!, and you don't want to be a nigga, cuz niggas are living contradictions, niggas are full of unfulfilled ambitions, niggas watch and wane, niggas love to complain, niggas love to hear themselves talk but hate to explain. Niggas love being another man's judge and jury, niggas procrastinate until it's time to worry, niggas love to be late, niggas hate to hurry!.......Black Entertainment Television is the worse thing I've ever seen in my life....Usher, Michael Jackson is not a genre of music...and now I would like to talk about Soul Plane...I've seen whats around the corner, I've seen whats over the horizon and I promise you, you niggas have nothing to celebrate and no, I wont get there with you...I'm goin' to Canada!
Boondocks writer, Aaron McGruder, always emphasizes that his comic-strip-gone-cartoon is primarily for entertainment. With a combination of ridiculous characters, a deep, intelligent social criticism, and enough vulgarity to make me giggle like a school girl, it's hard to categorize the award-winning hit Boondocks as anything other than "entertaining".
I made up the award-winning part. But it should win awards, because it's the funniest show that's ever been on TV.
However, the clip above is actually pretty serious and sums up how a lot of black people actually feel. I feel a blog post about black people coming up...
This show is completely worth watching for one character alone: Uncle Ruckus
Check him out.
Check the show out.
Or just check out some random black person.
