Forty five years on, what has changed?
I was watching one of the episodes of Laugh-In currently available on YouTube last night. The comedy was alternately dated and funny as hell. But one joke has managed to stay relevant through all these years. In the Party section of the show, Chelsea Brown, a black comedienne, had a joke about growing up. When she was a kid, they played a game in her neighborhood. It was called "What Do You Want To Be If You Grow Up". In light of recent events, I wonder if black kids still play that game?
