I'll be back at 6:06 pm sharp with this week's Saturday Afternoon Cinema feature. You don't want to miss it! And keep in mind, as much as things change, things stay the same.
Peace,

The Changing Same: A Momentary Diversion
Okay, kids. Get you a bowl of your favorite sugary cereal, and check out this cartoon. I'm on the road taking young Aaron Beaste to Tennessee for a summer program at Vanderbilt University.

SMH.. I really hate the era of all those racist cartoons.. Years later you watch the ones like Tom and Jerry and your like. WTF!!!
"Lazytown Laundry"
*Sigh* This is UNREAL to me. It's actually making me kind of sad.
Having watched this AFTER I just watched the beer commercials you posted, I retract my previous statement about facets of our culture "deserving" to be mocked.
Nothing like a good slap in the face like this to erase the uppity in me.

And little black kids had no choice but to watch this foolishness if they wanted to watch TV. There was nothing else. It's a wonder the whole race ain't crazy.
@ Issa Rae
I never saw the connection between this cartoon and the commercial. But you are certainly correct. We still haven't completely overcome. Now I feel like slapping somebody. You got me all hyped!
