<b>Reverend Jesse Jackson Calls For Censoring The Movie "Barber Shop"</b> and it's time to take a little off the top with this Garytorial.
Well, well, well, what up, dawg? It seems that Jesse Jackson is at it again, and this time it's the Black comedy "Barber Shop" that has him blowing his 'fro. He doesn't like the fact that jokes are aimed at civil right leaders like Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, and I haven't seen one Black man dissin' other Black men this badly since Michael sent Tito & Jermaine groving on down the road. Word!
But what's the big deal here? Isn't this just going a little over board? What's next, a movement to change the name of the movie "Black Hawk Down" to "Color Opposite That Of White Hawk Down?
Or perhaps we should start calling Black & White cookies "White & Really, Really, REALLY Dark Brown Cookies."
I guess I shouldn't be taking my coffee black, but rather Nubian-style. And don't even get me started on Blackberry Brandy... as if her berry would be any other color.
But you know, this whole thing reminds me of growing up in Pinelliiiiiis Park, Floriiiiida, where Mother, and our handy man named Bobo, were very much into Black culture. I can still recall them talking about "Good Times, "getting down," "bustin' a move" and even Bobo's "Shaft" - shut ya mouth! In fact, I remember one hot summer's day, where they must've been having soul food for lunch, because Mother kept offering Bobo her biscuit and candied yams, but he was too busy eating out her grits and.... wait a minute, Mama was getting her freak on.
*sigh*
Anywho, if Jesse Jackson really wants to help the Black civil rights movement, the only Barber Shop he'll concern himself with is the one that Al Sharpton has obviously been spending all that NAACP money at. C'mon now, his and Don King's mousse budget alone could keep 1/2 of Harlem in bling-bling.
We're here, we're queer, we will not disappear, this has been my Garytorial, THANK YOU!</font>
