I’m racially tired…and FU Texas
Ever since The Colbert show went off the air and was replaced with The Nightly Show I have been watching it and have seen just about every episode.
So “In my opinion” the show is pretty focused on blacks in America. This is neither good nor bad but just my observation (I am willing to bet that I am not alone in this observation). I have never watched other black media (looking at you B.E.T.) and know that the Cosby Rapist show doesn’t count either as it was pretty whitewashed.
I just finished watching the July 22nd episode of The Nightly Show and came to the understanding that I am tired of all this racist stuff. But maybe not as you would expect. I am tired of hearing about it and that was when I came to a new understanding. When I get tired of something, like cleaning my bathroom, then you allow the germs/fungus to start spreading again. It is only by be vigilant in keeping honest open dialogue (talking about it), that we expose the grunge and keep things in check.
Humans are inherently flawed creatures, trust me I know every morning upon seeing my naked ass in the mirror. Biases once, and still to a point, serve a purpose in human survival. [Insert yet another metaphor here] It is only when they are not socially manicured every so often that they start to get jagged.
Oh and don’t think I forgot about you Texas… FU too
