Fire show! I saw someone mention the actual fear of racism outweighs the fear of the monsters and that was true.

We had breakfast while we were waiting for the rain to stop, and I can still envision sitting with the Clowns in a restaurant behind Griffith Stadium and hearing them break all the plates in the kitchen after we finished eating. What a horrible sound. Even as a kid, the irony of it hit me: here we were in the capital in the land of freedom and equality, and they had to destroy the plates that had touched the forks that had been in the mouths of black men. If dogs had eaten off those plates, they'd have washed them - hank aaron

The story of Ontario’s last segregated Black school | TVO.org

Kingsville and Leamington had sundown laws,” historian Elise Harding-Davis recalls, “which meant black people had to be off the streets of the city by sundown. You would not find the laws in the books; they were not written. They were simply public knowledge.”

 

[WMG the 2nd]

Was this the best first EP to start a series?

I loved Watchmen but the first EP didn't take me like this one did.

Nah watchmen was incredible. Lost too.

 

[No Sleep]

Nah watchmen was incredible. Lost too.

First Ep of Watchmen wasn't as good as this one.

Watchmen one of my top 5 series.

Tulsa Massacre
Sundown towns
I learned about none of this in school
I swear there is so much history that America wants to just erase and pretend never happened
No wonder so many people think racism is dead

 

[Optimus Prime]

Damn this show needs to be in 4K/HDR. This is shot beautifully. HBO quality is fukking terrible

are you watching on the cable HBO channel at 9PM or the app? The app is usually better quality because its not being compressed through cable. it looked great on my 4k TV imo

 

[The axe murderer]
