25 reasons being black ain’t easy

This Tuesday, BET aired a program called, “Top 25 Events that (Mis)Shaped Black America“. It was a nice blend of comedy and serious social commentary, hosted by one of our up-coming Blackademics interviewees Paul Mooney. An encore broadcast will air on BET this Friday, Feb. 23rd at 10pm. For those of you who have not yet seen it, don’t worry - I won’t give away the list. But I will offer a critique: that BET itself was not counted among the top 25. If you don’t care to watch the entire program and just want to skip to the list check out BET.com for yourself. Everyone else, enjoy! Let’s continue the discussion after you’ve had a chance to watch.
