Ok, so most people have seen the highly discussed 1hr cartoon "Freaknik: The Musical". This comical cartoon features guest appearances by many celebrities including, T-Pain, DJ Drama, Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, Charlie Murphy, and more. This story is filled with classic stereotypes of blacks in entertainment, sexuality, and spring break in Atlanta, GA. HOWEVER, the question is how far is TOO far? The depiction of Oprah Winfrey, Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, Russell Simmons, and Bill Cosby as an evil society of black activists has sparked great controversy within the black community. Some feel it should be boycotted and others feel that all is fair in the name of comedy. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, so what do you think? Leave us a comment and tell us how you feel!
