    Mooney is probably the most brilliant black comedian there was, he didn't sugar coat his routine, he gave you the medicine and it was usually bitter.

      Richard Pryor - 1970's-era Celebrity Roast, on RUclips, had Mooney on it with a bad a$$ 'Fro.... I was born in 1974... I watched reruns of The Jeffersons, Sanford and Son, Good Times, All In The Family, What's Happening?, & Welcome Back Kotter. I never did see an episode of Chico and the Man though, with Freddie Prinze, Sr. I dig Richard Pryor, Dick Gregory, Joan Rivers, Robin Williams & Don Rickles, man. I liked Red Foxx as Sanford; I heard about Nipsey Russell, Lenny Bruce and Flip Wilson.

      It was also the golden era of black beauty. It was amazing to be a part of it and to an observer. Nobody but blacks were doing 70s justice.

      Xander Morrisette Jr. You could have. There was more black unity then and zero tolerance to white folk bs compared to how it is now. They had their neighborhoods and blacks and latinos theirs. What i mean even more so was if a cop or white person period did something to ANYONE black and got caught in the hood it was on sight off GP. Im saying that from a NY point of view. The generation now is way too docile towards other races but are more disrespectful to their own no matter if its a child woman or elderly. Its like we once had a fuckin code. Im not trying to preach but being a kid seeing stuff, Hearing my elders talk about situations vs how are people now its way different. Its like we were more proud to be black then....well at least thats how it looked to me 🤷🏾‍♂️

He missed the flight and was the only survivor of the band except for one horn player who miraculously survived the crash. They later reformed the group with the relaxed hair cat, Larry Dotson as their lead singer and of course they started having success around early 77 with a song called "Shake Your Rump to the Funk" and the rest was history

    One thing about being black. We gotta understand every black man young or old with feminine mannerisms isn't necessarily gay. Alot of our males grow up with only women at home and don't have males to mimic and learn from. One of my homies moves just like this and is hilarious but his father wasn't around and his family is mainly women. He's far from gay, he's still learning what he missed out on by not having a father around. I think we drive certain people to believe they are gay by not understanding this in our community

      I think to assume someone is gay because of the way they talk or their mannerisms is dumb. It is stereotypes that ruin cultures. I have seen manly gay men, white people who dance well, tall asians, and a black president in my lifetime. The only people i discriminate against are assholes and it doesnt take long to figure out who those people are.

      You like who you like but you still have to have your own back. Nothing complicated in that. Even if your so called community rejects you, to the rest of the world, you're still part of that community.
      I don't understand why people like you think not being racist amounts to being anti black. That mentality alone is enough to turn more open minded, progressive people off. It's both sad and disgusting that so much of the "black" community has allowed racism to make them lose their humanity and turn them into oppressors themselves.
