This is a lot of it so I'm just gonna quote the writer Michael Arceneaux.


"When I first heard Donald Glover was making a show called Atlanta, my initial response lingered on, "Uh, I don't know about all that."...I've never been quite sure what to make of him. I don't believe in measuring anyone's blackness; it's stupid, sophomoric, and, forever and always, incredibly boring.

Still, I've taken issue with previous comments he's made about black culture, most notably how he's referred to it as a "fight."...whenever I hear black people opine about liking both rap acts and emo bands, my eyes roll into the back of my head. You're not the only one, beloveds, and plenty of us can relate to mixed tastes. Being well-spoken, being educated, and not being thuggish or "hard" does not automatically make you disconnected from the black community at large. But for whatever disconnect that's been mentioned in the past, Glover didn't help his case with comedy sketches like "bro rape" or the fetishizing of Asian women under his rap moniker Childish Gambino."
