I was on the train from Harlem last night after the superbowl and I heard this white boy going on and on about how Dungy was such a “nice” guy and it was great that he won the superbowl.
And I began to think.

Nice Black Men.
Muhammad Ali (New School)
Obama
Lovie Smith
Tony Dungy.

Oh the irony of it all…lol
but that’s our reality here in the good ol’ country.
I knew you would like it.
earthiegirl
doubled checked to make sure but you forget Malcolm X for not so nice black men,
Just thought of another one Nat Turner,
I will also say Paul Mooney, b/c think it would make him happy to be on the not so nice black men list
And don’t forget about Wayne Brady for nice black men, and Al Roker and the Guy from the Green Mile what’s his name again.
So since Martin Lawrence was on Oprah today you can add New School Martin to the nice black guys list and You So Crazy Martin to the latter…
Ooh also Bryant Gumbel and Tiger Woods to the nice Black men list…of course
Ummm…I think Jay-Z is making the “nice” list these days, too. C’mon! Super Bowl ads? Sports teams?? Danica Patrick in a vid??? Sounds like he’s on the list to me!
“Bad” list (and I love this man!): Allen Iverson.
Actually Bryant Gumble is in the ‘bad guys’ list. Lots of media ppl HATE dude..
morgan freeman is a nice black man. he’s so nice i want to hug him. ok maybe i dont.
is diddy nice? possibly. i wouldnt hug him though. id just give him a pound or something.
my bad…well can i take Al Roker for $200 Neo?
you must not know eddie murphy from the 70s and 80s.
A List of mainly sports figures(who are one-dimensional in terms of human value), isnt much evidence.
America is fickle towards its ‘celebreties”, black or white.
We like it when they “sell out” to the masses. Uncle Tom is less threatening than Uncle Tupac.
America loves deion sanders.
yooooo m dot!
no one mentioned our man WESLEY AUTREY.
GDUBBZ has already invited dude to two white house events.
ca-ray-zee.
they LOVE the nice black men. i’m gonna steal some inspiration for a future post at bioslang from this post.
PEACE: did you survive our freeze????
