I call this kind of over-compensation "blackity-black" when I see it on TV.
Blacks have been terribly over-represented in advertisements for a long time, but George Floyd BLM pushed into the crazy zone.
How about we treat black folks as people, and stop patronizing them ?
This. Keep it real. I've had a lot of black friends in my life and I think one of the things they liked about me was that I wasn't afraid of their blackness.
My philosophy has always been "God is no respecter of persons."
Nor should we be.
Works for me and most of my Black friends. It’s actually my lily white, colleges educated, suburban, liberal female relatives who seem to want to treat them like pets or animals on exhibit at the zoo.
