Blackface Is Back…..Again
Saturday, March 8th, 2008First, some history.
Now, moving on to film:
Remember the 1980s comedy “Soul Man,” where the lead character colors himself Black—as in, actor C. Thomas Howell performing in Blackface?
Well, here’s something fun to do in 2008: find Robert Downey Jr. in this promotional photo for the new comedy film, “Tropic Thunder”:
I don’t even know what to say. [...]
In The Spirit of Multiculturalism…….
Thursday, February 28th, 2008
………….I have to offer this, tongue firmly in cheek. Happy African Heritage Month! LOL!
P.S. I gave up watching “Friends” reruns a couple years back when I realized I had memorized every other line, so……

This Jazz & Justice “redux” tribute is paid to Malcolm X in sad honor of this (February 21, 1965) the 43rd anniversary of his assassination. Hear words and music all dedicated to the honor of both the revolutionary and the idea of revolution.

State Of The Obama Union :)
Saturday, February 23rd, 2008It was one of the better ones—when it was about the candidate who didn’t come.
I greatly enjoyed the dustup about the invitation (scroll down to the bottom of this link to hear Tavis Smiley’s commentary). As I like to say, Tavis keeps trying to be Larry King and Martin Luther King at the same time. It’s a mix [...]
Is It Over?
Saturday, February 23rd, 2008No, not necessarily. (But some smell blood.) The little sister here does not seem really impressed with Hillary’s tactics thus far.
While I typed this, I watched Hillary Clinton go on the attack on CNN. She might be right, but it still looks desperate.
The Trail Leads To Terptown
Saturday, February 9th, 2008
Huckabee at the Stamp Student Union today, Chelsea in the Stamp’s Food Court on Sunday, and Obama at Comcast on Monday?
Boy, the plantation is rocking candidates left and right. I expect to run into Ron Paul in the bathroom any moment now! LOL!
FEBRUARY 11 UPDATE: See “60 Minutes” last night? And I’m sure you heard about Obama’s [...]
Two Networks, A New Comicbook…….
Saturday, February 9th, 2008Can anything stop “Doctor Who” and its spinoffs “Torchwood” and “The Sarah Jane Adventures” other than them being worn out?
Here’s the link to the new “Doctor Who” comicbook. And if you like cartoons, here.
P.S. If you liked the Peter Davison take on the character, you’ll like this. Then you can watch this—until it’s gone. [...]
The Not-So-Secret Plan :)
Friday, February 8th, 2008So, does anyone really believe that the conservative radio hosts and talking heads, including author-columnist-flame-thrower Ann Coulter, are not going to support McCain?
Being perpetually gullible and naive, I ALMOST did—until I saw her on this morning’s ”Today” show. She held her position (”I’m going to vote for the most conservative candidate,” she said, as I winced for McCain), [...]
Race vs. Gender (vs. Class?), Hillary vs. Barack vs. America
Monday, January 14th, 2008These two broadcast programs—and this commentary—might help explain some things.
UPDATE: And now there’s a truce. How nice—on the real MLK Day, too.
