12896718, Video: Don't Get Your Black Card Revoked in Brooklyn

Funny stuff, I figured yall would get a kick out of this.

She asked 10 people in Bed-Stuy what they knew about black music, tv, movies & history. It didnt go so well for a couple of folks to say the least.

So all the blackity black references as dope as can be will just not hit for a ton of people.

Some people will drink it in and take it on and remember some strange detail from an old 90s sitcom but most people have forgotten it, I'd argue that a Real Housewives question would hit more people or hell, a question about their last Facebook post...I'm arguing that people don't give a shit about media outside of consuming it and never caring about the art of it or the details
12896794, TV show knowledge is the test for blackness now?

Real blackity-black kids stayed outside on the block playing anyway, not parked in front of the tube.

I didn't come to appreciate it until much later. There are HUGE gaps in my Martin knowledge.
12898263, brother, are you of talented tenth lineage?

no shots
12898281, Not at all. My mom is the first generation of our fam to go to college, BUT
Posted by John Forte, Fri Sep-18-15 07:28 AM
She went to Hampton, so she brought those talented tenth values home.
