The Boondocks Doesn't Care About Black People? (Response to @JawnLouis )

I don't usually make these. But Jawn Louis made a really interesting critique of The Boondocks show that got me thinking. The points were really strong, but its framing often contradicted its own point. The more I sat on it, the more I felt like it was important to say something. It's important to note that since the creation of this video started, the title has been changed, which does help. But there are a lot of arguments and ideas in the video that I still think are harmful both in its approach and framing. This isn't a dig and I wish him nothing but success. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ SOCIALS & STUFF: https://bsky.app/profile/thestorytell...   / thesoulminded   ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Link to the Original Video:    • The Boondocks Doesn’t Understand MLK Jr !   All original artwork featured is done by the ever-talented LJ-Baptiste.
