I'm not sure if I will be home to watch it but I recommend everyone to check it out.

Its a documentary about a 28yr old black man named David Wilson and his visit tothe ancestors of his ancestors slave masters......Crazy. Ironically the man he will meet is also named David Wilson. It should be a powerful piece.

Btw.......the slavemasters are only 3 generations apart from the 62 year old David Wilson who owns a series of barbeque resterants in north carolina(did some of that blood money help him start his businesses?)

Anyway, everyone should check it out. I'm going to try and see if I can get someone to tape it.

What a great show last night !

I even enjoyed what Mrs Chris Rock said , but isn't the problem that we as a nation would rather spend money on our older kids fighting in Iraq , than the younger ones growing up now in america.

Instead of "paying reparations" invest in the community centers and the schools...




Also Mrs Rock said something very important, since black history was not taught correctly, she said along with Mr david wilson that it should be included in the american school curriculum whether the school is public or private.

Not just one month in the year.

To get ahead in america white people never have to learn about black people, but to get a head we have to learn and adapt to white people all of our lives.
And this is why race relations are so strained!
