The Boondocks: Episode I

Posted on November 11, 2005 5:09 PM

The Boondocks

Yeah, I know its a few days late but here’s my first of what will be many postings about Aaron McGruder’s “The Boondocks.”

First off, I give Cartoon Network a lot of credit for taking a chance on such a controversial show. And if what I hear is correct – the network is said to be collaborating with Andre 3000, David Banner and MF Doom on individual projects – it sounds like this is just the beginning.

Anyway, “The Boondocks” lived up to the hype and then some. Here are three reasons alone why this show has a permanent spot on my TiVo and in my heart… that is until something better comes along:

1. The opening sequence where the young, militant Huey Freeman starts a riot at a bourgeoisie garden party full of white people by stating three simple truths:

“Jesus was Black, Ronald Reagan was the devil and the government lied about 9/11.”

Never were truer words spoken by an animated pre-teen… and he speaks so well. By the way, shout out to McGruder for throwing the Sean Connery and Ron Artest-look-alikes into the fray.

2. “Nigga.” Yeah, I wrote it. What’s the big deal? I know that it was said 15 times during the 30-minute premiere and protesters are already circling their wagons but come on… Did the show not address the ironic way we as African-Americans use the word hypocritically in the first 10 or 15 minutes (an approximation)? Let’s not be so sensitive. Nigga. Nigga. Nigga. And yes, it is even more ironic that the website that I write for censors the word here.

3. Uncle Ruckus’ “Don’t Trust Them New Niggas Over There.” That is quite possibly my new favorite song. I hear that it should be available via iTunes next week. Word is 50 Cent is even looking to sign the old player to a multi-album deal. Yeah, he already has Tony Yayo. What’s another old dude in the fold… Especially one that spits the hate like the good Uncle.

All that said, I know there are those who weren’t feeling the show on general principle. To those people I say, give it a few weeks. If you still don’t like it, I can recommend some more suitable programming. I hear PAX and Lifetime have great programming on Sundays at 11pm.

Aiight, now let me go find a white man to lie to. I’m out.

(ed. note: Talkin' Videos readers- welcome in Dark Kent who will be covering The Boondocks on this blog every Monday)

  • Da Realest nigga... REALLY? I highly doubt that. First off, it's not Ron Mexico writing. My name is Dark Kent. Say it with me.... DA-RK KE-NT. Now, as is implied in the name, I am of African descent. And you would know that if you read the post all the way through. Were you too busy getting the dictionary out? God forbid a hip-hop site uses a word with more than two syllables. And as for the "wigga" character you referred to I thought he was the shit but as I said in the post I wanted to give you all the top three reasons I like the show. Lastly, nigga, nigga, nigga. Did that offend you?

  • whitey says...
  • i didnt say nothing racist im just saying what i think i didnt say jesus was white i said he was probably an arab considering he was born in a place where everyone knows that arabs come from, and when you fill out a questtionaire that asks your race the definition of caucasian is people from europe north africa and middle east, maybe you thought my comment about making a show about two white kids from the hamptons living in the ghetto belittling black culture was racist well its no more racist then the boondocks so if you dont like it fuck you, i admit ronald regan is the devil that crookid fuck wrecked the unions "the greteast thing to ever happen to america", and damn right the gov't lied about 9 11 they were behind it, the war on terrorism is the new cold war the war on terrorism is a neverending war and for the big wig corporate fucks thats a never ending supply of cash flow, the problem i have with this show is its just another black man bitching about how the white man holds them down well black people hold themselves down, they sell eachother poison and they kill eachother overit too, your the cause of your own problems heres what you need to do you need to stop wanting to get quick cash, go to school get an education, dont sell drugs, get a job like a normal american, go to college and through the years you will find that your race is better off i know that not all of you r thugs an crack dealers but the majority of you are, you think theres no way out of the ghetto but there is a way out of the ghetto by following these 4 simple rules you will be better off 1.dont break the law,2.get an education,3. help eachother,4.stop blaming the white man for your problems. the war on drugs wouldnt be racist if you stopped selling drugs. i do not wanna be considered a racist and if you think that oh well cuz what i said is the TRUTH and you know it

  • Nigga, Nigga, Nigga.......didn't Paul Mooney say it right when he said he says it to keep his teeth white?, well, all I can say is the black man is always blaming everybody but his damn self for his f&*(ing problems, always puts up barriers without even thinking about it, that's some psychological BS. it's conditioned into them by their own damn parents who went through the same stuff and it came from Slavery, yeah, the white can tell you all to stop blaming the white man, but yeah, the white man did create those problems when he took ya'll from Africa, now they're wishing that they never did bring you over. isn't that something. I'm Latino and all I know is while both of you mofos are steady arguing, we're taking over in droves, so get over it and shut the f*&k up and get an education. I know that the black man has it bad, but damn, please stop blaming it on the white man already. all you mofos do is f*(king complain, complain like a bunch of bitches. You've already been reduced to a phallic symbol, and that's all the worth people see in you. come on, you have to be better than that. observe the white man, join these mothas and then beat them. Dead Prez talks alot of shit about the white man, but if they were really Pro-Black like they say they are, they wouldn't have signed to Loud Records, which was run by two Jewish Brothers. Rass Kass said something once"Jews Run it, Nigga Walk around in it" you know who the opportunist are and it's not black cats, blacks are always exploiting themselves, look at your own fucking directors, it seems that John Singleton couldn't sell shit until he had a hood movie like "Boyz In The Hood" and then he did"Four Brothers" which had white people in the movie. Black directors are always exploiting their own. They see no other way to come up but show people how "hard" the hood is. It's not that damn serious, yeah, some places are serious but come on, now. white people don't control what you mofos talk about, because look at Common, he's not using mysogynistic lyrics to degrade black women. I date black women and they have to be the most intelligent women I've ever met. I don't date them becuase they're black, I date them because they are beautiful and they have a brai, which for the most part, most white chicks tend to not have. if they do, it's fine, but black women are very strong and I love a woman who has boundaries. and don't tell me that black women don't do certain things, because just because they won't do anything on the first date don't pigeon hole them. but black men never love they own women. I don't really care, because as far as I'm concerned, I'm black, white, and indian, so I'm all you dumb f&*ks, only smarter. Black people never talk about educating each other, they do that after they go to jail, which I fail to comprehend becuase you should've done that a very long time ago, when your child was three or two. why does rap have to be about money, it was never about money like it is now. yeah, we had the flash and whatever. I hate saying "bling bling" becuase it's as cheesy as saying"keeping it real" from the early nineties, but most of these rappers are just plain stupid. most of them never had a formal education, but yet these are the biggest selling mofos in the Industry? please. Fiona Apple is probably alot smarter than Jay-Z's big-lipped ass will ever be. Miles Davis Was Genius. He did things to Jazz no one could ever do, He revolutionized it. KRS-One is another dumb mofo who, although he used to read alot, now just doesn't. it goes to show that you really can hide money from Black people in a book, because you niggas won't read a book to save your fucking life. the money is a metaphor for what you can do to enrich your life, go to a library, people. your ancestors didn't fight for the right to read so that you can start being ignorant and not read. Books are education, learn to read, read alot and you'll know more than what you hear on the fucking block, I tried to euphemize my explitives but fuck it. Niggas are just plain ignorant. Chubb Rock said once "I Love Black People, But I can't stand Niggas". why dont' you go look up the definition of the word Nigga and stop using that Tupac bullshit about "Never Ignorant Getting Goals Accomplished" because Pac was a damn pussy who only used words to breed hate, and that's sad because he was such a contradictory mofo. I didn't like every song that nigga came out with nor did I worship Biggie, he was just as fuckin' Mysogynistic as the next Pimp. if anything, Biggie is no Martyr, and I'm glad he passed, kept him from puttin' black women down. see that's what I'm talking about. when I see Latinos, they don't disrespect they women unless they follow examples of Niggas when they wanna run a train on them. do you know the psychological trauma that women go through when such things like that occur. that can leave permanent scar on your women. and black motherfuckas are always doing that to black women, but yet they worship the white women like they the epitome of success. Black women have a strong heart as well as Latinas and I will never stray from them as far as I'm concerned. White girls can be smart, but when's the last time you had comments like a girl going through a "Blonde Moment" that's white people BS. I love Latinas and I love Black women. from their skin tone to the way they talk, ghetto or Intelligent. they always have a thing for making you feel comfortable, but don't get it twisted. just remember to teach your own people man, get your education and start up a scholarhip fund to help your own people. we all know that BET is now owned by a white guy so now black people have no medium, to go to, but who give a flying fuck, create your own medium. stop waiting on somebody to walk you through it. this is your life so take advantage of what america has to offer, if you don't get the job for whatever reason, forget about it, keep on trucking, a job will come if you keep it moving, bro. stop whining, please, you're too damn strong to keep whining like you do. don't stop looking, you will find a job, trust me. you will. stop selling poison to your own people. you're killing your own people and you know that. Crack was made for Us blacks and latinos. stop that, I'm sick of that bull shit. yeah, there's a war on drugs, but if you would've stopped selling it, you wouldn't be looked at as a friggin drug dealer, bro. for real, please, just stop. Hip Hop as fa as I'm concerned is dead. 50 Cent killed it and he's the only guy making money off of killing his own people. he's not positive, but he knows how to exploit us. he doesn't have a mother though, so I CAN understand that. his mother died so this nigga has GOT to have no heart, he wasn't right, but he found solutions. and if you think that being a drug dealer is bad, look at CEOs of big companies, they are worse than drug dealers becuase they lie to you about your stock being good when all they're doing is stealing your damn money. It cuts both ways people, but black folks need to start focusing on building up and stop hating on each other, stop the HATE, people, STOP THE HATE

  • I'd like to nominate noname as the "internet village idiot of the year". Obviously this person has a moldy rock for a brain and can't allow others to have an opinion. Based on that long post that absolutely goes nowhere but from stupid to irrelevant, I can tell ur pant size is also the representative to your maximum number of I.Q. points. Brilliant example of why neanderthals should not speak. All these all sharptons that find a desire to speak all this cha-cha-cha but have no idea of roots and the developements in society that led us (all races) to this point in time. I really want to thank all of the parents for the lack of self love and the burgeoning presence of immature ignorance.

  • Whitey you have your opinion,, but facts are facts,your comment about most of use selling drugs makes me know you are not knowledgeable about my people. No name you can say what you feel you have to right to say what you please but as a BM i have to disagree with you on certain points you made.Historically in this country we have never got a fair share ever, it is not equal & if you believe that i am sorry you feel that way. Every successfull BM in this country & abroad has been held down in some form or fashion. Look at Old Jazz musicians & the things they had to face coming up, Micheal Jackson, Micheal Jordan,Mike Tyson, Bill Cosby{even him} Oprah,Spike Lee, & countless others the list goes on. So i do not think you can just say live a normal life,[whatever that is} & things will be ok,, that is not true at all, as history has dictated, the system is made to have us to go against each other from every aspect of life, whether education, employment , healty issues,, it doesn't matter, Being a man of color especially a BM, we are treated with different standards,, we didn't create those standards.I agree with you on certain points, i do believe you have to do what u can for yourself & your family & live a postive life, but to think that will change things here in America is foolish,, that doesn't stop the cops from harrasing individuals, doesn't get your children better schools & teachers. We live in a new age now,, & it is important as ever that people be knowledgeable about theirself & the world around them.We don't even own BET, we hv no radio station, disribution companines,Hospitals, etc. Meaning we may run some organizations but don't own them. So what do we really have. I can go on & on but it is useless, people will believe what they want, so peace to all in the struggle. Stay Postive & do your thing,, Long Live Pac, Marcus Garvey, Malcom X, John Africa & Peace to all of my brothers & sister locked down in this Jungle called America,, ,,& a ? wht ever happened to the U.S.A,, they don't even promote that propoganda anymore,,there is nothing United about this land that has been stolen.

  • whatever, blacks will never get ahead, read Bell Curve. Yeah, you were the original man, but damn, I guess the white must the upgrade of the black man, I doubt you'll agree with me because you're black but that is the truth. I've been around mofos who are white black, latino and I can tell you one, thing, Latinos atleast try to get out the ghetto. These rappers have white boys wanting to live in the ghetto. That is just crazy, promoting your poor lives, come on, man, what in the world happened to Oprah, she got refused service at a place, no, that place was pretty busy with another function. Oprah just got niggerish when she pulled that "entitlement" shit that ya'll do all the time since the Civil rights. She said it like it was said on the paper"I had seen a watch and knew that it was perfect for Vanessa Williams and I just had to get it." well, the store was closed bitch! what the fuck is up with that. she got niggerish if you ask me. since she's got millions, she thinks people casre about that crap. It was just business Oprah. but no.......she's got a show on her"Crash" Episode now. just let it go Oprah. Ever since the Civil rights freed ya'll, ya'll just think you can get anything you damn well please. yeah, you can get everything if you work for it my man. why let the putdowns get to you, bro. that's such bullshit, that just means you either love getting beatdown. The House niggas that ya'll have labeled could've been another African just trying to Help you get out, figuring out what happens within the system so that there could be a plan, but you had to hate on them. yeah, now you don' fucked yourself for that nonsense. the funny shit is that you call each other brothers and sisters but yet, ya'll too busy killing your brothers and sisters. what's up with that. look at my typing patterns to figure out what race I am, man. I can be a plain gray alien just making an observation. I have alot to say when I hear another black person crying about some nonsense that they can't figure out. I know that you dont' own companies or corporation. but damn, you mofos have been here longer than the original african immigrants and they come up faster than you do. I've been in black neighborhoods and they have africans and Jamaicans owning business. I dont' want to hear that bullshit. Jamaicans haven't but been here for a minute and already they have a business. explain that, Jamaicans are just as black as you so why the animosity towards them when they open up shop when you could've done that. There is discrimination within the white race, just like ya'll hate your lighter brethren. they don't like broke mofos, that's what happens, examples are white trash, it's almost like we're not comfortable as human beings without putting labels on something. I understand that rappers never had an education, but hard gets you there, don't gimme that "as a BM" nonsense. Yeah, so you're a black man, AND?...............what else can you tell me besides you're black. sometimes I wonder how ya'll were subjugated for so damn long, I mean, damn, 400 years and you couldn't come up with a damn plan. that's you mofos can't ever get along now, you're just conditioned to go against each other, they do that to every race, not just race. but damn, atleast the other races fight for that and get results. but I'm the racist, I am the one hating blacks, whatever, my nigga, you're just as ignorant as the next man just by brushing it off like that. I may not know all of history because there is just so much to learn and historically, people can cause a revolution, but nah........niggas are scared of revolution. Gil Scott Heron was right when he stated that. I mean, come on people, even in Haiti, they fought for their own freedom. Look at the Cubans, they won't let America help them because America always wants something back. They are doing to Puerto Rico as well, trying to make it a state so they can fuck them out of their culture. yeah, black people had four hundred fucking years, come on, what the hell happened to ya'll. I mean it's like there's only so much you can take if your damn people are getting slaughtered. how could just sit there and do nothing, Nat Turner was right in doing what he did, but it took only a couple mofos, and he was a reverend. He killed people and he was a reverend. why didnt' anybody else join him. it's like ya'll always say, black people can't ever stick together, the only time you get together is when someone dies and you have a cause now. something extreme has to happen for you to get together. come on, people, you have to educate each other, not just yourself, stop being so damn selfish and help your people. I don't discriminate, but damn if I don't see another ignorant bunch of fucks on the corner knowing they killing their own people. do you think every mothafucka in jail is innocent. please, yeah, discrimination is there alright, but come on, you had to do something illegal just to get there, if they decided to kick it up a notch with them charges, then that's them. Then, THEN, these mofos come out and haven't learned a damned thing, they just go back to the same shit. I dont' care about them,if you go to jail for selling drugs hey, maybe you should stop doing that. but no, these dumb fucks dont' learn. they want to go back to the same. I dont' know what's wrong with ya'll doing that, you'd think you would just curb your ways, but no, since you can't get a job, you can't just be happy because you didn't educate yourself and whatever. Even Cam'Ron had a chance to go to School in Texas, but he decided to spit bullshit on wax, degrading women especially black women becuase the girls on the skits don't latin or white, they sure as hell sound white, but hey, I guess sounding uneducated means their black right? I dont' know, but you should stop acting like reading is something that nerds and open one and read, instead of reading F.E.D.S. nigga. all that is just disgusting. Praising Drug Dealers who killed your people, how the fuck can Nicky Starks be a hero to your people, he just sets ya'll back. Oh, and don't get me wrong, there a handful of blacks that go to school and get your education, so I'm not claiming that all blacks are drug dealers. maybe since I live around the ghetto,that's all l see, I hardly see educated blacks around here. but hey, it's where you're at. yeah, I love the fact that I can consume so much space on this Blog because wow, I love so much attention and I can speak my fucking my mind like there's no tomorrow.
    I have my opinion, I am only stating what I read in books, yeah, I guess that the white man owns the books too since the victor is the one who writes about history and it's always going to be subjective and favor them. I'm not saying that there aren't black folks who aren't successful. but come on Oprah, isn't the President and it's necessary to go into that store. it wasnt' discrimination, it was just that didn't get her way in Europe and she turned black when that happened. had to make a spectacle out of that, WHATEVER, NIGGAS

  • u all need to turn off your computers and stop crying about a damn cartoon. u all sound like bitches and the bible is a book of lies jesus had hair like sheeps wool, but was the king of jews and if i am not mistaken there are a lot of jews with nappy hair. also any one that was raised in the middle east would have skin like bronze fool. u can tan a white person in the sun but a black person wont get that much lighter. so when it comes down to it jesus was a jew. not black.

  • I don't even like Oprah,, why are you concentrating oh her. Like you said, you can say what you please,, it is your right, You don't know me & i don't know you.I do not in any way promote any negative influences in life period. Black , white etc, I am talking about the greater good for all of us, study both sides, i mean really listen, don't just hear, History has led us up to this point, We don't run the world or country,, who is to blame for all of the destruction on this planet.I do not make excuses for anyone, We all are individuals & live very different lives,,that's wht makes all of us unique,, I am not degrading my people & that's wht all I can do is try to teach the next generation. I state my opinion yes,, but that doesn't change facts. Just listen & read between the lines sometimes, we all need to do that,, & I read alot, that is a minor issue. Just get both sides of the story everyone, & let the chips fall where they may, but like i said facts don't change.. Peace to all in the stuggle.

    other than that the show was good. I laughed, wasn't that a part of the point of the show?
    and WOW at the white folks getting upset, muthafuckas too fucking dumb to see it's not just about them.
    I'd Like to say welcome to the newest show(sitcom) to be on "ALL IN THE FAMILY" levels of hate and humor.

    "don't trust them new Nigga's"

  • November 13, 2005 8:30 AM
  • realtalk says...

  • yeah, nonamebiyatch wrote some reality.

    the responsibility lies with the people themselves but consider the media that shapes everyone's thinking which leads to the decisions they make. Example: with history comes pride: textbooks won't tell directly that whites were slaves to assert pride in their people. At the same time, those books don't cover the technological advances made by Blacks and Latinos in the states to crush self esteem.

    One reason is because the states have made us ashamed of our true place of origin, thus ashamed of ourselves. In my past, blacks would pride themselves of Caucausian relatives and downplay the fact that they are descendants of Africans.

    most blacks(or everyone else in the states) have no clue that the finest tourist escapades are in Africa, excluding the safari trails.

    the real reason urban blacks depend on reputation--it's all we have. Sadly enough, that reputation depends on being cool. 98% of how young people act depends on being cool.

    Take for instance, not the rule, how blacks justify having white friends to other blacks: He/She's cool.

    how whites justify having black friends to other whites: He/She's intelligent.

  • I don't understand what's up with the Deep Thinkers of Racism? (DTR) It is what it is nothing more or nothing less, which is a very entertaining cartoon that clowns on current events, pop culture and cultural differences. At least thats the way I see it. Not only do they clown on whites but blacks just as well. ( The new white man calms down when given fancy cheese FUNNY SH*T! or
    Don't trust those new niggas over there
    Leaving their nigga essence in the air
    Those happy nappy head niggas
    with their fingers on the trigga
    Don't trust them new niggas over there
    Don't trust them big nostrils over yonder
    They suck up so much air it'll make you wonder
    Don't trust them new niggas with their spidy little nigga fingers
    Don't trust them new niggas over there.
    Now that's a classic!

  • The show was mad funny i read McGruders cartoon everyday in the papers, if you dont like it and it offends you then turn the fuckin channel and quit cryin and complainin its other shit on the t.v.

    The whole jesus was black/white/jew/arab.... i dont know how that got started but one thing is for sure, it shouldnt matter if he was pink, the man came to teach love,die for our sins and show us the proper way of life, no offense to my five percent brothas out their. i respect all mans opinions but frankly i wasnt thier to oversea who wrote the bible or to confirm its historical facts. but i do know that religeon is a tool to control the masses and always have been and still is, and the devil has done his job real good, look at everybody on here fighting and complaining about thier idea of a religeon and none of us were there to confirm what was or wasnt true.

    as for us black men blaming the white man for our problems, i didnt see that in mr.mcgruders cartoon, the shit was like dave chappelle it made fun of everybody down to the uncle tom.

    as for us selling drugs to each other mr.whitey, if i do recall it was the c.i.a and the f.b.i that pumped crack into the ghettos, and have you ever considered the physcological reprecussions that slavery/segregation, and racism has had on the generations. to my niggas that have to be on the block to make sure they kids got to eat, its fucked up but i understand. we as black folks are natural born hustlas and survivalist, if you give us the scraps we gone flip it into something so dont complain whitey about what you people have done to mine, if anything push the issue of my fuckin 40 acres and a mule, yeah i bet reperations made ya ass shiver didnt it.

    we all arent law breakers, it is a fac though that the black man is a target in amerikkka hands down, but i understand if you dont know that because youre not black so continue with your preconceived notions about us, just watch who you say it too and where you be at when you do it cause some of us tend to take that very personal.

    i believe that us blacks are the most copycated, original, innovative, and artistic race on the planet, to quote paul mooney " everybody wanna be a nigga, but nobody want to be a nigga"

    So beleeve me or not Jesus is omnicolored .I bet you my Hesus piece that Jesu Cristi who is also Yeshua Ben Miriam, Isa , Zeus, Adam(ooo the 1st man) , is still shinning UNCONDItional LOVE to all races and music from the 7th dimension as LORD SANANDA.

  • Yeah I think Democrats Love this bullshit, it already has the whole world convinced for there side, black americans usually support democrats, there being used. Just like any politician "Sure, love how Bill Clinton ACTS like he gives a shit, yet your saying Ronald Reagan was the devil, I think there is alot that people don't know and probably will never know, and history and the truth has away to hide itself like that, Well Ak Zok Zan! Slay Evil Immediately! Politics is just as much with Republicans like the Democrats, there was this man named I don't know maybe if you remember George Washington that one of the things he said was to seperate into polictical parties, but what do you know there are policitical parties so I guess that's the problem we leave in a world with different views and perspectives. By the way cartoon's like these just give one-sided views don't think what's discussed is actually factual but only enough to question, these tactics are what people fall for and in the end everyone will think whatever they want.

  • I don't wanna bore people with long posts so I'll keep it concise.

    A. Noname is real, and he kicked a lot of knowledge. A bit of advice though bro, it's best not to argue with a fool. Appreciate the message, but until people act on it, like you said it's just talk.

    B. Jesus' skin color has nothing to do with anything. You been the same color as him doesn't make you closer to him, listening to his words and applying them in your life does.

    Also, that show is funny, and it's real. If you don't like it don't watch it. Please stop acting like it's such an insult to white people. A White man owns BET, and you know BET wasn't gonna play that show. It's amazing it's even on TV, so if you have a problem don't watch it and go vote or something.

    You need to stop the madness...There are many blacks and latinos in prison for minor shit. White people get away with alot of crimes. We get life while they get off with community service and therapy! Thats all the time I'll spend on your silly ass.

    The show is funny, I could care less if it offends the sensitive white man!

  • i didnt see the first episode of boondocks, but i was excited about seeing it, but the point of shows like that is to open dialogue amoung people, so i think this is good.

    only thing i dont like to see is black people finger pointing and name calling amoungst each other! callin each other "niggaz" and "toms" or whatever else, we all black, respect people for who they are and do you! its not that deep really. let people live.

    And the thing about Jesus that everyone needs to remember is that he's not partial, and not part of this world, so stop using him to preach nationalistic idealogy on either end of the issue, black or white! Jesus loved all people.

    and if he was a black man, he assuredly didnt spend his time hating white people, no matter how terrible he was treated.

    peace and love

  • The major reason we (black people) are in the state we are in is due to the lack of education. Is it white peoples fault? Yes. Is it our own fault? Yes. However pointing the finger won't solve anything (as we all can see). If we really desire to elevate ourselves to a higher postion then we must educate our children in a stable environment, both in the schools and at home. A child can't be expected to learn if they are hungry or living in poor conditions. How is a child supposed to do homework that his/her parents can't help with? If a child is not being educated or challenged at home, then it will be very hard to educate that child in any environment. Soon the white and black issue will disapper and be replaced by the rich and poor issue, so stop fighting in small battles and start fighting the war.

  • Just so all of you folks know....Everyone that ISNT white has been held down.....You think latinos just ended up in the dominican republic, puerto rico? We were ALL slaves at one point its sad to see people who think we hold ourselves down when there are alot of ,blacks,whites,latinos, trying to make life better for ALL of us How can you be rascist again THE HUMAN RACE??? we debate against whos right and wrong when the whole thing is fucked up...Drug dealing is illegal becuz the white man said so. No black man had a boat to pick up columbian drugs so how did it get here??? We just dont think as one race.For a lot of things we can blame a select few, but its up to us to make it better for us and our children ever wonder why the are no wealthy blacks, latinos? There are "rich" ones but not wealthy one. One becuz we dont save and help each other out enough to be wealthy. But to make one more point, if a black or latino man/woman created Alcohol, or cigarettes how legal you think thart shit would be now???And that shit kills all of us! Now who do I blame for that???

  • Look - everybody has an opinion and everybody is entitled to there own beliefs. I am pretty sure that if I stated mine that some people would have problemz with it. Thing is -thats how strongly I feel about it. My question is (to all my college bloggers - please try not to take points off 4 spelling and vocab. I am just a high school grad.) If Americas such a great place with so much opportunity then why havent we seen a black president yet? Are we (blacks)not educated enough to be the president? And I don't mean a puppet president like GW I mean a real black president that grew up in my same surroundings. Before we answer let me tell you that posed this same ? to a white lady I used to work with and she said that she thinks we will have a white women for president before a black. I will use a current situation to validate a point. We are all aware of the murder ink situation. Now I ask you, had this been whitey records would he had been investigated?

  • First off Boondocks is some funny shit!I love it Aaron Mcgruder do yo thang!
    Now on to the mislead latin spic trash nonamebiyatch and the assclown whitetrash. First White trash aka whitey although the people in the place where Jesus was born now are persians not Arabs you sick fuck second they didn't originate there they are from Iraq/Iran they came near the end of the ancient egyptian culture and took over largely because it was a melting pot like America is today and they dominated! So Jesus was most certainly not caucasian and caucasian is not synonomus with people of persian decent assclown! Two 90% of the people who sell and use drugs are white! Surprised?? Well also a majority of the people who abuse their women are you ready??? WHITE!!! Now you can't sterotype any person whether they black white hispanic persian just because the media and society perpetuates what they think a Black man of African decent likes dislikes or how you think they behave! I will say noname you had a point when you said that hiphop is allabout the bling bling and other bull I think so too but you know what??? I only buy the artist that I respect fuck the rest!!! Finally the whit man has already successfully kept the black man down now all he is doing is making it a class thing instead of a color thing the majority of heads of state love black white middle eastern if they can make money if not your useless. In closing the Boondocks perpetuates certain black and white sterotypes to show people how ignorant all races can be and to also show the level of hatred one can have for his on race (uncle ruckus)NO Relation! ONE LOVE I'M OUT

  • i have nt seen that show yet.But iam looking forward to it. As far as this politic stuff goes it only leads to history.To my african americans brothers and sisters just remember africans sold their own africans to every one else that wasnt african back then.So basicly the same shitt is happening and for the white man dont blame him he just got himself a discount since then. his Economy grew, while he raped african americans, cotton farms , and basicly america was build on free construction by no one else but the african american sold out by his own africans.its funny some folks in here are saying oh blacks always blaming the man for his bullshitt. Cut ur bullshitt, u know damn well africans americans build ur fuking country, its kind a like the blackman is the t.v and the white dude has the remote on his couch.Dont come to me with that bullhitt.Some say get an education dont break no law and everything will be fine lol funny.wat good is education for when corporate america is dominated by whites? .So that in mind , ever seen those tv shows back in the days where like u see like 6 doctors and all five of dem are white but the sixed dude is black.so u get the point right?.But change is evolving u know white kids that listen to rap music will hopefully change white corporate america and make a way for black corporate america .By not buying all these artist products when they all desperately need a push then u got white corporate america right there to the rescue, always on time saying hey u need a push nigga my name is reebok.Finally these so rappers / business man god all the damn money in the world , and none of u all cant fuking come together and by ur own t.v channel to promote ur own shitt since we all know bet is sold like kunta kinteh s new name, but iam a stop now too much for u all peace and i dont hate white people remember that.

  • Yo off top peace to LT, Marcus G lil wicked. first off here's something Jesus wasn't white, h e was pobably closer to a black man, but he wasn't black. And everybody on this bitch is either racist or stupid, Hey I'm 24, I'm black and I got rascist tendencies for everybody including my own race and the funny thing is most black people will tell u that. White people on the other hand wanna act immaculate as fuck and like that don't have a hateful bone in their body, first off any white person that starts of a comment about black or any other race by say "what they need to do" or "their problem is" u racist as a muthafucka. Who the fuck are u to tell someone what they need to do or whatever, when u have no idea what circumstances placed them in that position, it's fuckin' arroangt. Since you white people wanna tell us what's wrong with us, as ifthe shit ain't apparent, lemme tell u something about yourselves. Y'all need to get the fuck out of business that don't concern you, i.e. discussions on the black community, the middle east and everything else you read an article or book on and deem yourself king know-it-all of, 'cause u don't know shit. Amd fuck how many friends of a certain race u have, my question is how many times u called them nigga,spic,jew or sandnigga behind their backs and act like ur their friend. And b4 one of u ignorant fucks says something stupid, lemme give u a run down of my eduction.
    1)Prep School
    2)Harvard
    3)Columbia
    4)Morehouse
    So say something now, and trust I'm far from rich or clean. I got there becuse my black ass mama told me straight up, white people & noone else is gonna give u shit, so get it on ur own or do for u or do without. Man I'm done, y'all got me heated.

  • 'whitey' your hypocrisy is amazing. How many crimes has the white man commited? If you wanna act like the human race isn't capable of the same good and evil. The white man: holocaust, genocide of the jews, slavery, atomic bomb on Japan(which is still celebrated by good old white men). It's funny you say blacks blame all their problems on white people. But how come every group of non-whites is hated by the white man? The sad truth is it's human nature. Human behavior causes division among one human race. Human nature causes division amongst those with the same ethnicity. Every 'race' or ethnicity, better yet, every group of people has hated, massacred, or robbed others. The biggest problem the world faces today in race relations is misunderstanding and hypocrisy. Surely you don't believe all material you write up on these blogs. You need to check yourself.

Fuck all the nigga's that were not feeling the show. jokes aside i say nigga but not as much as i just typped i was trying to be funny. Anyway White folks thought it was ok for Dave Chappelle to say nigga just about every show, but since he is funny and makes white's laugh it is no big deal but a cartoon says it and the world is ending, shit nigga is no longer a racial derog, it is now a hip hop slang, kinda like BITCH. Bitch is no longer a female dog. there are so many words that hip hop takes and makes a GOOD use. Like words, DOPE, BAD, FUNKY, Tight, SOn, Muthafucker! All those words used in 1950 would have ment something completley different! Sticks and Stones may break my bones but words will NEVER hurt me, so Call me a NIGGER it don't hurt, I will just call you George Bush!!
