I just looked up his picture after reading your post and you are not lying. Damn he really does look white.

he a quadroon

he a quadroon

So 25% Black and most likely 75% White. Interesting. I wonder why they didn't go with a light skin actor. The actor playing APC is doing a good job. But it would have put his actions in context especially historically if they casted a lighter skin actor.

This show is so dope. It doesn't help that I have a fondness for the early to mid 1960s. The way everyone dressed, the music, etc. I get why Bumpy had Big dikk Buster(PAUSE) violate the breh instead of killing him. He raped a woman and ended up getting his manhood taken from him. Probably will end up killing himself over it.

The actress playing Bumpy's wife is so damn sexy. Even the actress playing Bumpy's daughter cleans up nice when she's not drugged up.

Giancarlo Esposito is killing it as Adam Clayton Powell. I can get past the complexion like I did with Denzel Washington playing Malcolm X.
