Nigga I would rather take Slayven to a K/J-pop show then listen to your mixtape.
I would rather move back to America.
I would rather take Slay to a used book/dvd store so he can buy all the AV's he wants then listen to your mixtape

Fam, that 13th documentary on Netflix made me physically ill. There's a segment in the film thats essentially a montage of a half dozen unarmed Black folks being executed by cops. Its disturbing as all hell and will probably fuck your shit up when you watch it. I wish I hadnt seen it, cause some of those videos I'd sworn to never watch again.

Hello there, I've lurked on this thread before, I'am not a black person (Caucasian 
but I would like to post in this thread I'am from a small town 60 miles away from STL and I've just recently noticed there are black people in my hometown, which is cool and all.
Black culture has always interested me in a weird way (and yes I'am on autism spectrum if you need a further explanation) and I always felt a guilty that I never had a black friend growing up (but in further retrospect, there was a light color black girl that was a GF of one of my best friend (RIP).
So what black culture websites are there that I can read?

I always assumed it was post-bath water.
Grey water is dirty water that comes from your bath tub, and sink. Oppose to black water being water that comes from your toilet.
The only machines I hack are my own, breh.
It'a a good 10 years in prison for that in Canada, so no way. I'm too small for prison.
Pretty blanketed statement. Not one black film you like? They don't really fall into one category, lol. What have you watched that you think that? :")
Ugh. What a time to be alive; can't even get that recognition without some proof, and even then the white guy is more trusted. Some bullshit.

If Woolie's a 35 yo white man from Colorado, than sure.
Indeed
Austin Creed thought he was white that whole time they talked remember

Someone else could make the thread but this is worthy of discussion, IMHO.

I don't know what you would call them. Maybe movies with primarily black actors? I don't know lol sit-coms I love those those. Movies no
I think the last movie I wanted to see and I loved was LIFE
only movies that come to mind are those late 90s and early 2000s movies.
The Wood
Love Jones
The Best Man (Holiday)
The Brothers
Baby Boy
Friday (after next)
many more that i can't of. I've seen juice, don't be a menace, new jack city. Maybe it's the genres i'm watching too cause i'm not fan of drama, crime or suspense movies.
you know what I can't retract my statement I think the majority of those I liked besides baby boy but I think for me the turning point was watching Soul Plane and the flux of Tyler Perry movies that did it in for me.
Reminds me I do want to see Straight Outta Compton and DOPE but I don't think I will for another couple of years
Now I know how DY feels.

Ok first of all, you're in the Black Culture Thread. Don't get confused by all the anime and comic book discussion in here, this thread was made to discuss black culture. You don't have to be black to participate so if you have questions, feel free to ask.
Otherwise here are some sites you can check out (note, most of this is going to be focused on US Black Culture, vs Black Culture world wide):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_culture (No this isn't a joke)
http://www.pbs.org/black-culture/home/
http://www.theroot.com/
http://www.thegrio.com
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/section/black-voices
And as a bonus, here's some books courtesy of Mumei.
Considering your dislike for dramas, crime/suspense, I'm not shocked Tyler Perry & Soul Plane put you off like that. There are plenty of solid, primarily black cast movies that aren't in that bubble, though. If you'd like recommendations, I'll throw some after I get to school.
I loved Straight Outta Compton, even with Dre's refusal to go into some of his darker stuff. Try for it sooner.
Just got to properly read this. The irony in the opposing team calling the cops when it's them and their fans inciting hate because some players are taking knees is such a joke.
It's just breeding an even rougher generation if a bunch of people are ready to hit some 12yo kids with this tier of hate, in and out of their age group.

Have I mentioned before how thoroughly Pokemon destroys other Japanese games/media/etc. when it comes to character designs?

On a more serious note, I'm going to really fucking miss the Obama family. They were killin' it yesterday <3

Saw Shin Godzilla last night and loved it. It felt like Evangelion the movie. Even my girlfriend who's not into foreign movies enjoyed it.
Pokemon continuing to kill it in both diversity and waifuBrehs
