"My Black Friend, Token"

March 30th, 2011

Is it just me who sees this?

Lately I've been finding the time to finally catch up on some TV I've fallen behind on. I've been out  and about so to speak so I've missed quite a bit. Anyway, just something I noticed was that the "token black person" in every TV show or movie really reminds me that Blacks are a minority in this country.

Having moved around a couple states I can't say I've really ever come to terms with it so blatantly. The ratios have never seemed so skewed in real life although that may just be because it's hard to see the bigger picture while you're living it.

Iunno, no real significance. Just something I noticed.
