A majority of young black kids do.Are we forgetting rock music comes from Black people?
A majority of young black kids do.
Plus, Boyega had a good response...
Currently I can only think ofAnother thing, is Lenny Kravitz the only black rock musician we have now?
First of all, the music that people call Latin or Hispanic is really African. So Black people need to get the credit for that. Number two, Latin people are very passionate, and the music that we love is definitely Afro-rooted -- whether it's Bob Marley or Afro-Cuban -- because it deals with rhythms. (In response to the use of the term "Latin Explosion" in TV Guide, 19-25 February 2000 issue, Vol. 48, No. 8, 40-42.)

Dumb as a box of rocks!!Speaking of which what do you guys think of this Star Wars boycott? Are these people serious?
me too man! as well as a Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther!! i hope those dudes go on to have illustrious careers they are so freaking cool!I'm rooting for John Boyega to have a long and successful career.
Well, it's like the question Amandla Stenberg raised: What if we loved Black people as much as we loved Black culture?
There would be a lot more biracial kids running around.
You in Your Small Corner was first broadcast live on ITV in June 1962 and has not been seen on TV since.
It was rediscovered in the BFI's National Archive.
It was broadcast earlier than an interracial kiss on Emergency Ward 10 in 1964 and on Star Trek in the US in 1968.
The kiss on Emergency Ward 10 between Joan Hooley and John White had been thought to be the first interracial kiss on a TV series in the UK.
In the US, a kiss between Lieutenant Uhura and Captain James T Kirk was seen in an episode of Star Trek from 1968.
You in Your Small Corner was an adaptation of a play by Jamaican-born Barry Reckord that had been performed at the Royal Court.
The playwright's brother Lloyd Reckord played a young man who travels to England from Jamaica to stay with his aunt in Brixton before heading to Cambridge to study.
Elizabeth MacLennan played the white woman with whom he becomes involved.
The play looked at the subtleties and difficulties the couple faced across race and class.
