"A lot of old black men about to be in trouble (our favorite topic)"

They got Jesse.

And John Singleton, who isn't that old but the behavior described in the story is very much old black man.

http://www.indiewire.com/2017/11/john-singleton-accused-sexual-harassment-danielle-young-1201894751/


Not condoning either of their behavior but it very much sounds like moves out of the old black man playbook.

My dad was a gentleman and I don't think he crossed a lot of lines but there are plenty of things that he did that don't fly with the younger crowd (e.g., calling women "sweetheart") that I wouldn't try today.

Not a major loss. We got to accept the world is different. But you are going to have to drag alot of old black men into this new world.

                     Why should it be for everyone?
Nov 07th 2017
