Professor Robert J. Thompson, SJ. (Super Jenius)
“When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are...”
Yeah, that sounds racist to me.
I like jazz...
Just sayin’....
If only black people liked jazz there wouldn’t be any.
You folks didn’t know that?
Actually, my mother was on to JB back in the ‘60s and didn’t want us to watch it for just this reason.
So tell me what group of people like rap music and what group of people like country music? Why do these people keep trying to drag race into everything? I’m so sick of it!
He looks like a pasty white moron.
How about you and me split a watermelon and some fried chicken? I like jazz too, except I find “smooth jazz” to be dull and boring.
Even today, when I hear a trumpet player, I mentally compare him to Louie Armstrong. Does that make me a racist?
“Only Black People Like Jazz”

Wow, that is a new twist. I wonder what Dave Brubeck and the other greats would have to say about that?
"I want to be like you" sung by Louis Prima.
Sicilian.
try Grover Washington - Mr. Magic. It should afford you about 1000 hours of listening pleasure...
In the world of the modern Left, if you aren’t being overtly racist to promote non-whites, then you are clearly a racist.
Wait a minute - how did we get to drag racing?
;-)
I suppose the learned professor thinks blacks have “natural rhythm”.
Just remake “The Jungle Book” and make it true to Kipling.
Movies & TV today which are aimed at an audience younger than 18 seem to start with Barney/Sesame Street then a brief transition through Shrek then jump right into the whole vampire/zombie mess.
There are exceptions to this morass of junk. Pixar comes up with some good ones - “Up” springs to mind.
Back in the hey-day of movie theater attendance, studios would serialize movies of various heroes and other characters. Kids (and adults) looked forward to the latest adventures and escapes of their heroes. We also have that today. Look at the successes of the Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Ironman and X-Men franchises.
Produce the Jungle Book(s) as a series. The full Mowlgi story, Toomai of the Elephants, Riki-Tiki-Tavi and all the rest. Make them accurately follow Kipling. Give the little kids the “Just So Stories”. Kipling is evenhanded in his treatment of Indians of various castes, the colonial British and the various animals. Each has good characters and also their share of idiots and scoundrels. There are no “African-Americans” or LGBTQRXYZs, so the grievance industry hopefully will go elsewhere.
Doesn’t make you a racist but probably does mean that you never heard Bix Beiderbecke play “I’m Coming Virginia”
