I remember watching this show when it first came out it was great!!! It really made you think about what is race. What makes one white and what makes one black??? Is it skin color, is it DNA, claimed ethnicity, nation of origin, or physical features? Races is a social construct and as such is a moving Target.
"An endlessly curious and unexpectedly intelligent social experiment"? WHAT!?
It still baffles and overwhelms me how 2006 was literally only a decade and a half ago ...progression is gonna take forever
Maaaaan early 2000s was an amazing time 🤣🤣🤣. Me and my family (Black) used to watch this show like how tf did they clear this to be on air 😂. We were amused at the audacity tho
Whats actually racist about it though? I feel like most of us just assume things are racist because of loose connections to actual racist things. Inw what ways is it offensive or carry any prejudice against black or white people
I remember this show. Completely bonker balls.
