During the 1970s there was a popular TV show that all
blacks loved about a poor black family living in a housing
project. But what made the show so enjoyable was the fact
that there was a beautiful strong black father figure who
loved his family and was indeed in command and authority
over the trials and struggles they were overcoming.
Actor John Amos was brilliant in his role as a black
father who, although poor, was a man of virtue, honor,
honesty, and integrity. He loved his afro wearing wife and
all of his children; including his oldest son who was the
somewhat immature comic of the family. This black father
refused to let society's numerous tricks and traps, entrap
him and his beloved family!!! The name of the show was Good
Times.
But the tragedy was that white supremacy once again,
reared its ugly head, and stepped in and destroyed this
"black authority figure". John Amos was removed from the
show because of the show's producers and directors growing
emphasis on the "silly buffoonery" of the son; played by
professional comedian J.J. Walker.
So, as a result, and in typical racist style, John Amos'
character of a strong black father and role model was killed
in the show and their family became the now proverbial
"single mom household".
And it is no coincidence that this occurred during the
1970s just when Feminism was taking root in American
society, and therefore, a "strong black father figure" was
seen as "out of character" according to the fags and sissies
who control Hollywood.
This TV show was the first and only "real" black family
that had been portrayed since television was invented in the
1950s!!!! Yet, there were numerous shows about white
families with father figures in authority. Leave It To
Beaver, My Three Sons, and Father Knows Best, to name just a
few!!!!
THANK GOD FOR BLACKTOWN.NET FOR TELLING IT LIKE IT
IS...AMEN!!!
