Today’s entry in the “Oh my God, I can’t believe there was a time when it was okay to put this on television” file is a clip of scenes from the ’80s PBS show “Many Voices, Many Visions” in which a little white girl with a perm gets teased by her peers for looking like a black boy. Fortunately, she’s got the world’s best mom to comfort her. After Mom tells the little girl, “It’s just a perm, it’ll grow out,” she adds, “It’s not like you’re really black.” Phew! That would be way worse! Thanks, Mom!

“Its okay, at least you’re not a stinky Mexican!”
I knew that I was not really black the first time that I took a bath.
THAT’S A FUCKING GIRL?!?!
“Mommy, they said I look like that black mailman that keeps visiting you.”
“Are you sure mom? Because I was late for my after-school job.”
“How about we prove them all wrong and go swimming?”
“Of course you’re not black, your father is standing right there.”
In the immortal words of Rick James… Cocaine is a hell-of-a drug!!!
“You dont look like a black boy. You look like a Jew. A cheap little Jew. Now go do my taxes while I go lay out some slacks and a tie for my little girl to wear to school tomorrow.”
We won’t be seeing THAT clip during pledge drive
“Now you can grow up to be President!”
“We must settle this the gypsy way”
CUT TO: 2 hot sluts stripping off and grappling to bombastic music
Yeah, not really apropos of the above, but, y’know, hot sluts grappling.
Ahh, nostalgia. How this takes me back to the casual racism of the eighties.
White people still suck, though.
