When is blackface not blackface?
Manage episode 294228654 series 2935654
Bring Receipts has arrived! Grab your tanning pills and get ready to talk about the 1986 movie, Soul Man. This film follows the journey of Mark Watson (C Thomas Howell) a white student forced by his rich parents to pay for law school on his own. So what does he do? As Brandi describes it, he "inhabits the body of a black person" in order to get a scholarship to attend Harvard Law School.
Brandi argues it's the most progressive movie of the 1980s. Steven completely disagrees. Joining the pod to decide who is right is activist/DJ/ and tastemaker: Kwesi Chappin (@KwesiC).
This episode covers the history of blackface, race in the 1980s, and the illustrious (or not so) careers of Rae Dawn Chong and C Thomas Howell.
