Anywho. I've never really had a black friend till I met Keely's fiance, Traves. There are no black people in Oregon, the 'burbs of Long Island, Monterey, SB. I swear. Also SA was still in to apartheid when we were there. Learning about black people through watching Blaxploitation movies is not good. But the movies are funny. And weird. I own the Mack, the movie the onion article talks about. Also Dolomite is pretty sweet. There are a ton of recommendations in the comments section of the article. Including a little diddy about The Harder they Come, which I had mentioned yesterday: "I watched Harder They Come without the subtitles. So I don't have much idea what happened in it." Exactly.

Blaxploitation/Onion
There's a feature in the onion called 'gateways to geekery' which provies a way too short intro to a genre of movies/music, whatever. It's almost annoying short, though one on the dead did cause me to go buy Hundred Year Hall, which we listened to alot at SDSU, so it's worth something.
