How Networks be when you Black and Try to Pitch a Show

Why can’t they just give black people regular shows lol 150k likes?! THUMBS UP MY PPL

“No slaves no rapping” , “okay this is new to me” 😂 y’all wild bruh

"No slaves, no rapping"
"This is new to me"

I admire the Network representative’s restraint at NOT interpreting “Black Time” as serving time in prison.

As a Latino, I kinda feel the same when they make movies about us too. Gang Violence, Cholos, Cartels & Narcos, struggles of Immigrant’s, or even basing personality off of just being Latino.

“No slaves, no rappin”
“Ok this is new to me”😂

“We’re going through time with like Dinosaurs, Aliens, and Robots”

“So it’s a Rap group”

As a senior citizen black person, this evoked painful feelings for me b/c this is how it really was for all my life until middle age. We had so many great ideas for shows and movies, so many fine young black like you guys with dreams. We had to fight every inch to get acceptance and recognition, with so many of us crushed or exploited in the process. I'm so happy this young generation of blacks now, and other minorities, are finally living the American dream, glad I could see this in my lifetime. I'm so proud of you guys, keep going and growing.

I feel this shit so much. When I was an English Creative Writing major in college, I had this one prof who shot down my work and kept saying I should write about my minority experience. Like I’ll write about it when I write about it, but don’t reduce me to just that 🙄

I feel like this dude stopped listening after he heard “black people”.

This is the teacher from Everybody Hates Chris in a nutshell

Mark: "A group of black friends. Good people."
Leland: "Great people"
lmfaoooo

Seriously!!! My sisters and I have this conversation all the time. If Black people in it, it gotta be about slavery, drugs, or adversity. Don’t nobody wanna see that depressing stuff all the time. Yet those are the types of movies and shows that get the awards😒. We like regular, lighthearted media too❤️. Thank you for drawing attention to this! Great skit!!!

Black character: exists
Producer: no father, struggling artist with a basketball scholarship with a baby monma and a mother who cannot afford the lights so he is also a crack dealer IT IS!

"So no Slaves and no Rapping"
"This is new to me"
😂😂😂😂😂

I love how Mark was trying his best to keep it respectful at first. The way he genuinely looks through his script to see if he wrote "slaves" ahywhere XD

"No slaves, no rapping."
"That's new to me"
That broke me😭

“You had me at slavery.”
“Did I say slavery?”

“Black people and slaves go hand in hand.” 😭

As an asian, when I pitch a show... NAH, back to studying, doctor or engineer.
