i know Boyz N The Hood came out 25 years ago but this movie lowkey got me fukked up

[Raheem95]

nikkas in the 90s thought everything could them AIDS
the only reason they thought crack heads had aids was because they were skinny

man didn't nikkas in the '90s thought AIDS was just a disease gay people got


man the hood must have been shook when they heard Magic got HIV back in '92-'93 or when Eazy died in '95

 

[Apollo Creed]

Nah BNTH was light weight to me, Menace is what had me shook as a kid

So we not gonna talk about the single mother of doughboy and Ricky

Or how it only occurred to Ricky to use his athleticism to escape the hood and not strive to be a lawyer or doctor

 

[Raheem95]

@Barnett damn near 25 years later, the shyt Furious says about gentrification in black communities is still some what relevant.

she knew that if Ricky went to the NFL, she would move out the hood. that's why she made sure Doughboy didn't lay a finger on her precious Ricky.

ive said it before but im starting to think these hood movies were part of massive social engineering program.

 

[KravenMorehead™]

"Call y'all bytches cause that's what y'all are" line was some other shyt to me too, certain shyt makes your spidey senses tingle but you're a kid so you keep fukkin with it

it wasnt till recently i found out that the hughes brothers are biracial with a white mom...and they made sure to include that line calling black women bytches...

edit: they did menace, but still found i weird that these two were responsible for pushing some of the worst stereotypes of blacks in film

The only thing I will say about hood movies is they started off as introspective and retrospective then as studios seen money could be made, they started to delved into caricatures of the hood, movies like State Property, I Got the Hook Up, etc
