The Boondocks by Aaron McGruder for September 24, 2023
Transcript:
Huey: Days like this, I look out at all the snow and think; man, this is beautiful... Then I wonder - is it really beautiful, or have we just been conditioned to think of everything "white" as beautiful? Is my mind, perhaps, not as liberated from the slave mentality as I thought? Then I think, what if snow were brown? Would I find it as nice to look at, or would it look "dirty"? Is this indicative that somewhere within my subconscious lurks some heretofore undiscovered self-hate? Caesar: I don't know how much an hour of therapy costs, but I think that's gonna be your Christmas gift from me. Huey: I wonder how Farrakhan feels about snow...

There’s something about snow that really brings in the beauty of winter.

Snow is part of nature. Nothing race related about it.

Perspective is important, Huey. I had to walk to the bus for a brief period to get to work during winter. I had a long walk to catch the bus before sunrise, so I took a flashlight with me. The road crews had passed earlier, dropping both salt for ice and ash for traction, so the snow by daylight would have been considered “dirty.” But looking at it in the darkness with my flashlight the only light, it actually looked like the lunar surface with the sun behind me. I could picture myself aboard the Apollo Lunar Module looking for a place to touch down. It was a pleasant moment in an otherwise annoying circumstance.

Caesar, I don’t think that one hour will be enough.

Farrakhan would blame the Jews.
