the next room and ask our grandma questions. And in fact, we all know and appreciate the importance of generational presence in the household. Grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles were more than likely hanging out around the household, and they were always welcome.
Underlines Black Privilege
This may be touchy to some, but we have to face facts. Some black people do have privilege and they know it. I for one am fully aware that not every black person can make it as a full-time freelancer and travel the world.
However, ‘black-ish’ makes sure to tell the sometimes-overlooked reality of black middle-class to well-off families thriving in their careers and professions. It may be hard to watch, but there is another side of the coin, that some black families will never know or fully understand.
Whether you’re a fan or not, I think we can all agree that this show at least starts much-needed dialogue and conversation.
