It’s criminal that Nigel thatch ain’t getting more opportunities.

 

[Devilinurear]

Nice

She just like her pops with the razor

 

[Devilinurear]

It’s criminal that Nigel thatch ain’t getting more opportunities.

His performance in this show should open up more doors.

 

[Devilinurear]

Lmao ok they didn't know how to end teddy scene.

 

[Devilinurear]

Ok this was a good series that made me binge. Historical inaccuracies aside they told a good story. Bumpy got a war next season

 

[AJtheOne]

am I the only one that thinks Teddy looks like a young OJ Simpson Oj would've murked Ernie tho

 

[AJtheOne]

Breh has been playing Malcolm X type characters since he was a kid.
He was on Sister Sister, and he played Shakim on The Parent 'Hood.

Even then, he had Malcolm's look down pat.

For years, I used to say this dude looked like Malcolm X

 

[AJtheOne]

season finale was dope...

Spoiler

I knew teddy's character would get killed off(he shouldve listened to his mom) but figured it would be ernie that killed him. They tried to portray ernie as going soft when he basically tried to kill teddy for nine episodes..

I also wonder where they will go next because it seems bumpy it seems the five families have a greenlight. And I guess next season is when malcolm and the nation go at it

Giancarlo Esposito was great in the 90s movie Fresh. And the guy playing X is great but giancarlo is killing as Clayton Powell. When he put that wig on.... and tried to run from the cops....

It's a high intense drama but he brings comedic relief to every scene.. That's my sleezy, womanizing congressman..

Word

Breh flirted with every broad that he encounteredexcept Esther James he couldn't stand her

Giancarlo and Nigel did great as Adam Clayton Powell and Malcolm X

 

[AJtheOne]

Who do y'all think played Bumpy better?

Larry Fishburne or Forrest Whitaker

The chick who played his wife was fine

 

[JoogJoint]

after doin research, to this day i feel sorry for malcom
he was so loyal to the NOI and look what they did to him
him bringing up that elijah had sex with those other women was the last straw

make me think WHAT'S THE POINT OF BEING LOYAL

Watch that documentary on Netflix about "Who Killed Malcolm X?" It made me sad and pissed for Malcolm.

 

[JoogJoint]

Honestly that’s why I never donate a dollar to the nation when I see em downtown selling their paper

That documentary and what I've heard over the years solidified to me it's a damn cult.

 

[MikelArteta]

That documentary and what I've heard over the years solidified to me it's a damn cult.

malcolm x might have been the least black corrupt leader out there

No infidelity, never stole a dime

 

[Ol’Otis]

TLC music has aged horribly

 

[JoogJoint]

The 60s was so a crazy decade and we need more shows based around that time frame.

No civil rights beginning of the decade
Segregation
Desegregation
Cuba missile
Mafia
4 little girls killed
Malcolm x and Martin Luther king jr killed
JFK and rfk killed
Vietnam war
Moon landing
Woodstock

That's why I love this decade! It's so fascinating!
