I'm white and young (turning 30) and remember this being purely black v white. Details definitely didn't seem to matter.

I'll respectfully disagree. Had to pick and white people picked theirs so we had to do the same regardless
I think we'd let stacy dash or don lemon get that work tho
fair enough 
I was actually thinking whether black peoples would ride for Raven or Stacey when they get that wake-up call

Glad to hear you got that kind of unconditional, blind love for black folk
but I don't think everyone feels that way. You telling me you was empathetic for Samuel L. Jackson's character in Django Unchained just because he was black, though? 
this nikka OJ was a trip... check out the 3 minute mark & 5 minute mark with the murder bag

That's an extreme unrealistic example.
My nikka, WTF was he even talking about?! I stated earlier in the thread that he pretty much said OJ was a white man. What the fukk were/are OJ's WHITE FEATURES?! Fukkin Cac insinuated that black people have unattractive features.

Did not realize the depths to which they got him.
He did it to himself, though.

The contrast being shown at what was going on in OJ's world and the REAL world is
Just
. Genius in the way it was presented.Real shyt, I was born in 81. So OJ's accomplishments on the field didnt REALLY hit me until my mid teens when I learned he hit 2000 yrds on 14 games. Before that, I knew dude from 1st&10, the HBO show. I didnt have a judgement on dude until the murders. I never watched that Naked Gun bullshyt, I just was told that he was a great rb. Thats all well and good, but from what Im seeing and hearing from his OWN mouth and people close to him, how could the Black community stand behind this dude. And Im talking bout b4 the murders took place. He was a monumental fugure for his people during a time where people, his people, were being killed, for speaking out against the obvious segregation and racism in this country. He had the platform to do more, and he did for self.
Check his peoples from early on, he broke mad codes, not just race but friend codes. The only Get-Outta-Jail free card I would give him is that he didnt have a father around to teach him moral aptitude. Besides that, I couldnt rock wit dude. He tried to gain that acceptance from "Them Folks" before its time. It caught up to him, thats all. Hopefully it aint a contonuous trend, but it aint lookin that way.

and I remember the trial and the coverage was Huge black people were hyped and cacs were mad when the verdict was read
I remember oj from naked gun movies,nfl on nbc reporter etc and knew he played football at usc and for the bills I knew he was popular from back in the day.Last night I watched and was like
I didn't know he wasn't down for the cause and sold his soul to whitey.It was great episode I'm definitely anticipating part 2
