black dynamite

I’m thinking that ‘Black Dynamite’ is going to be the movie of the year in my mind edging out ‘Up’ for the top honor.

Here’s four public service announcement videos that were made in 1973 during the height of the orphange heroin epidemic. ROFFLEsk8s!

What I need to know is where can I come up on a Fight Smack In The Orphanage tee?

C.Y.E. = Must See TV…

Curb Your Enthusiasm is the only thing you need a television for. That and Adult Swim. I kind of stopped fuxing with Curb after the whole KKKramer incident since it was obvious that those dudes were racist bigots, but there were so many funtimes I had with those racist bigots that I couldn’t stay away forever.

After getting up to speed with this season’s episodes we find that Larry is separated from his wife. For a minute he was dating Vivica Fox, who must have been introduced to him by Wanda Sykes. Larry and Vivica are broken up now because she thinks she saw him cheating on her. Larry is trying to get back with Cheryl now and the scheme he is hatching to do this is a Seinfeld reunion show.

Larry is still the most selfish person on the planet. Curb Your Enthusiasm is still the best show on the television. Watch the latest episode here. Shouts to the Internets Goon.

DP.COM MANNY WATCH…

As the regular season finally comes to a close the Dodgers appear to be limping into the post-season. They begin a three game homestand with their division rivals, the Colorado Rockies, to determine the outright winner of the NL West. The Dodgers magic number is 1 but that might be the hardest number to get coming off a four game losing streak.

MANNY RAMIREZ, the mercurial superstar of the Dodgers has been sidelined for the last two games with a hamstring pull. If the Dodgers are going to come out of the National League for these playoffs then MANNY will have to pull a KIRK GIBSON act from under his dredlocks cap. The question remains who will be the OREL HERSHISER on the hill for L.A. The Dodgers do lead the league in lowest team ERA.

If the MLB post-season started this weekend the American League bracket would be set. The Tigers will come to the new Yankee mall in the south Bronx and the Red Sox fly out to Anaheim. The Tigers don’t stand a chance against this Yankee team and the Red Sox seem to have the Angels figured out. The stage is set for the Yankees to exorcise the recent hex that Boston has hels over them in the playoffs.

The National League bracket isn’t formed yet because the Dodgers or Rockies could end up the champs of the NL West division. The Phillies are last years World Series winners but they hardly look like the team to beat in the NL. The Cards are also uninspiring as the team to come out of the NL. This could be the Dodgers year to get back into the top trophy tilt. If only MANNY could use his women tits medicine for the month of October…

The story of Chi-town teenager DERRION ALBERT is some shit that we have on repeat here in America. It’s the story of poor, young people that are being misdeucated from the womb. The brutal and graphic video of this kid’s murder was made for television. It allows the viewer to shake their head in disgust at the perpetrators without viewing what the real cause of the murder was.

Poverty.

DERRION ALBERT is one of many teenagers in Chicago, St.Louis, New York, Los Angeles, Detroit, Philadelphia, Camden who receives the worst part of the poverty cycle. Don’t think that his assailants weren’t lost to us as well. Their demise is slower but it will be set before the cameras as well. This is what capitalism hath wrought. Crabs inside of a barrel isn’t as difficult to watch as this video.

I don’t believe we have the power to stop our precipitous decline.

All we can do now is watch.

Rebuilding Newark, Brick By Brick…

I have a special connection to Newark, New Jersey. I feel this city as if it were my home. The architecture of downtown Newark is so familiar to me. This was how NYC looked before all the steel and glass mirrors started to hide the fact that NYC had lost its soul sometime around the GIULIANI regime. Newark was like Detroit to me because it still retained it height and magnificence even through its depression.

The Newark Museum of Art was the first museum to embrace the Internets Celebrities. They cited our film ‘Bodega’ during their prestigious if not overcrowded Paul Robeson Awards ceremony. Newark retains a blue collar aesthetic the same way Philadelphia does. It is no small wonder to me then that Dice Raw of the legendary, hardest working band of all time Roots crew was tabbed to compose the theme to the Sundance Channel’s documentary about the rebuilding city’s inner struggle.

Dice Raw & Khari Mateen – ‘Brick By Brick’

The Brick City documentary mini-series features some of Newark’s soldiers from the young mayor CORY BOOKER, to the police chief to Blood and Crip and Blood gang members who are on the frontlines of the poverty and desperation within Newark’s ghettos. I’m hype for this program as the alternative to all the talk that ‘The Wire’ had generated in examining and exposing the urban phenomena created by capitalism over the past 40 years. Since the murder of MARTIN LUTHER KING Jr. the urban center has been abandoned by industry and the government. The story of Brick City is no different than that of Philadelphia, Baltimore, East St.Louis, Detroit and ALL of Ohio.

Those of us born into the full threshold of urban decay are now old enough and strong enough to progressively change our environs. The process is lengthy and arduous but we must rebuild our cities with our own hands. Brick by brick…
