►► How Edgy Black Comedy got Commercialized

I'm back. This is a topic that's been on my head for quite a while now.

Every hack internet comedian punching down and doing their best imitation of a marginalized group with no accountability kind of gets grating after a while.

The question I began asking was "Where does this come from?" The answer slowly revealed itself when I took a look back at a lot of the media that influenced them in the first place.

New here?
I cover media and discussion topics from a black leftist lens framed around The Boondocks, black identity and a range of nerdy stuff I'm into. In my spare time, I supply food for a foodbank, infrequently attend an afro diaspora community garden and I'm developing a black indie video game called NIXIE.

If any of that sounds cool or interesting, keep in the loop. Or don't.
I probably don't care.
