seems that there’s something in the air…

2008-09 seemed to be the season of the black play – ruined, inked baby, the good negro, joe turner, etc

2009-10 seemed to be the season of the minstrel show, or maybe questions of representation – jump jim crow, neighbors, scottsboro boys, bloody bloody andrew jackson, the elaborate entrance of chad deity

what is that?  probably something to do with barack, if only because it’s still wild to turn on the tv and see a black dude do a whole bunch of stuff we’ve only seen white dudes do.  makes ya think.
