So in yesterday's news Will Smith gets mistaken for Barack Obama! What?! Now I don't care if you truly believe that ALL Black people look the same, that's for you WHITE people...you know good and damn well who Will Smith is and who Barack Obama is. For one every person in the continental US has seen at least one episode of 'Fresh Prince of Belair' since it is on at least eight channels a day, and that's just basic cable. Clearly Mr. Obama just surfaced in recent years, so why the hell did some old white tourist in DC tell Mr. Smith, "We appreciate everything you're doing for the country!!! Thank you!" According to AOL.com, Will kindly replied with a thank you, but I think I would have led those lame ass people straight to Regal Cinemas on 7th street because someone obviously missed this year's feature Will Smith film, "The Pursuit of Happiness"...COME ON WHITE PEOPLE!!!Long lost brothers? I think not...so as this is Black History Month I say we not only take time to educate our own people but please for the love of Harriet Tubman can we all go out and get a white friend so they can see we do exist beyond BET...
in the words of my friend Stanley Johnson, "...it's 2007, not 1957" and that means...awww shit it really doesn't mean a damn thing, just like it didn't when Stan said it.
