GHETTOpoly: "DEATH of AUTOCOON" Lastnight I went 2 see Tyler Perry's Coonshow "I can do all by Myself" I understand from my e-mails that I have culturally diversed readers..and that's even more of the reason 4 this post. I know our President says that he does'nt think racism tends 2 show up in our modern day society...or he ain't "Uncle Tom" enuff 2 say it..whatevs' I beg the differ... 2 some Tyler Perry movies may be the most inspirational films that our culture has 2 offer, but I can only wonder how much we've allowed ourselves 2 be exposed 2? Truthfully the depiction of Madea and her brother are disrespectful 2 "OUR" elders, 2days seniors were the mothers & fathers of the largest conscience movement ever manufactered and if anything ...truthfully speaking, our generation is doing more cooning than they've ever done. Most of us are spiritually bankrupt and believe just what the slave master instilled in black ppl hundreds of years ago... "That we are possessions of ONLY monetary value!". I just realized 8 years ago while watching cartoons with my niece how many underminded racist tones was in Tom & Jerry..we never saw Tom's owner 2 much but when we did, she was a gigntic fat black woman who spoke in mami english and looked like Aunt Jemimah with a scarf tied on her hair frontwards this is the imagery of the blackwoman that was 1st used 2 safely allow blacks on tv. I'm amazed @ the COON shows, ADS, cartoons etc. that exsist in our society...IN THE 21ST CENTURY. What amazes me more is that when we critize any1 4 PURE IGNORANCE and especially our own ppl, we become the evil uncletom. MAYBE ppl really don't know the truth about UNCLE TOM? (Like when Cosby or Spike Lee spoke out against ignorance) Uncletom was'nt made out 2 be a bandit by black people but by white people who never wanted any1 2 know that the cabin was the safe haven during the slavery escape route. UNCLE TOM WAS A HERO, who gave escaping slaves, food, clothing and a safe place 2 rest.. - He was a House Negro that turned on his master and fled and used his cabin 4 safety purposes. - HE put his life on the line 4 people that had been enslaved buy CRUELTY. Lastnight I was horrified by "I can Do Bad By Myself" is it that much easier 2 except hardships by self? Do we really need COON shows in 2009? Maybe its just that my Grandfathers biggest fear was'nt some1 breaking n2 his home 2 steal his most prized weed collection....as he'd told me many years ago..that it was being an Tuskeegee Airman that was used as a fire missle decoy so that he could be shot @ while the great white men in the air force could safely escape. As a society we've become desensitized so much that we've lost not only compassion 4 others but just simple common respect. Ever heard of Ghettopoly? It's a real boardgame made in 2003..and They have a REDNECKopoly 2! You may think it's funny but novelty items are specifically created 2 degrade its subject. All of these images on this posts are REAL. They are from actual boardgames made recently that are still on sale 2day. If we don't start 2 speak on motivation inspired by hate of any kind and continue 2 TYLERate IGNORANCE, chances are our country will face another Civil War, that wont be North vs South but Brown vs Colorless PPL...it won't be a matter of social or economical status..because during the war you'll still be a Cracker or a Nigga in the midst of angry fire and it won't be made from anythang CIVIL. .STAY WOKE

Spike Lee Compares Tyler Perry 2 Amos & Andy

I HEART Spike Lee, he's an incredible filmmaker. Somebody needs 2 speak up when our people are cooning. The brotha gets @ Tyler Perry, who could use a sentence of not leaving the house wothout blackface painting 4 the next year…I was so embarrased @ that last movie "Madea Goes 2 Jail" which I took my mother 2 see cause I had determined she needed a laff and this movie would do the trick..NOT!!. Spike Lee should just make a movie called "Madea gets Assasinated" Has any1 noticed we have'nt seen a black DRAMA on TV in since .."NEVER"..we're casted as only comedians and Jokers...smdh, anyway.. here’s what Spike had to say: “We’ve had this discussion back and forth. When John Singleton [made 'Boyz in the Hood'], people came out to see it. But when he did ‘Rosewood,’ nobody showed up. So a lot of this is on us! You vote with your pocketbook, your wallet. You vote with your time sitting in front of the idiot box, and [Tyler Perry] has a huge audience. We shouldn’t think that Tyler Perry is going to make the same film that I am going to make, or that John Singleton or my cousin Malcolm Lee [would make]. As African-Americans, we’re not one monolithic group, so there is room for all of that. But at the same time, for me, the imaging is troubling and it harkens back to ‘Amos n’ Andy.’” “Each artist should be allowed to pursue their artistic endeavors, but I still think there is a lot of stuff out today that is coonery and buffoonery. I know it’s making a lot of money and breaking records, but we can do better. … I am a huge basketball fan, and when I watch the games on TNT, I see these two ads for these two shows (Tyler Perry’s “Meet the Browns” and “House of Payne”), and I am scratching my head. We got a black president, and we going back to Mantan Moreland and Sleep ‘n’ Eat? Is Spike “A HATER” or telling the truth when others won't??? newsone
