Banned From TV

The Boondocks episode "The Hunger Strike" is one of two episodes banned because BET couldn't handle the truth.

This is one of the funniest Boondocks I've seen. I see why BET didn't want it to come out. Dumb move on their part, by causing all the controversy, they only peaked everyone's interest.

Maybe I was just a dumb kid, but coming up, BET wasn't like it is now. I remember the o.g. Rap City, where Hip-Hop took center stage, and real emcees kicked real freestyles in the basement; and I remember Teen Summit where black students talked about real issues that affected the majority of black youth. There was a time when BET wasn't just an MTV knock-off, prostituting black culture, doing Jim Crow's job for him. I don't blame BET for the state of Black America, but they've done their share. The pricks black-balled the show to make sure this episode would never be aired, but they'll air any show that's self-destructive to our society at large as long as it will make $.

But nevertheless, this episode is a side splittin, knee slappin, gut bustin public service announcement: TURN OFF THE TV!

When the episode was banned everyone hoped that we would get our hands on it somehow. Well, it's leaked now (thanks God for the internet).. and here it is for you leeches.
