new adaptation of The color purple overview

This adaptation isn't just another black struggle movie. If you call it a black struggle movie and you didn't watch it, don't talk to me because we don't have anything to talk about. If you think it's a black struggle movie after you watched it, okay then. That's your educated perspective. I disagree.

The color purple is a very underrated coming of age story when it seems like all is hopeless and bleak. because of the way things start off, it's not even really seen as becoming of age story that it is.

Also, there's something very classist about how people don't want to believe that somebody who started so low, the lowest than anyone in our modern day could think is low, could come up and be successful.

But I certainly wouldn't suggest just anyone watch it. there are racially charged events. there is domestic violence. there is family violence. there's also using a teenager as a surrogate without her consent and forced teenage marriage. 

there's nothing about this movie that's convenient. I was also in this theater with a few other people, and unfortunately some of them were older and white. they were loud coming into the movie, and one of them laughed when the lady got hit across the face before she went to prison. I will say that the simulated violence and CGI does look kind of goofy, but white people laugh at weird shit. And they're old, so that's probably some of their parents grandparents and great grandparents being portrayed in the movie themselves. White people laugh at violence. White people laugh at their violence, but of course if you do violence to them it's not funny. 🙄 I hope replacement theory is real.

But I digress. 

yeah, It's a great movie and I suggest seeing it if your heart is in the right place.

Takoda Institute and adult education program REVIEW

The video: https://youtu.be/Uxcfu9c28YM this is a review of The takoda Institute adult education on Franklin avenue in Minneapolis Minnesota! Availability - they have reasonable daytime hours, 8 - 3 and 4. Accessibility - as someone who admittedly isn't disabled, I would say that the building is easy to navigate with wide hallways and a lot of movable furniture. The doorways do seem kind of narrow to me, so I don't know how someone with wheelchair would get into some of the rooms. But if someone who isn't wheelchair-bound I don't know what the necessary with is. But they feel narrow to me is an able-bodied person. Location - the main office in a lot of the adult education programs in a right on cedar and Franklin. These are bus routes blue Line, 22, 2, 67, and a 9 mainly. I would say that's a great location with high Public transportation traffic. cedar avenue and Franklin avenue are not so great during rush hour for personal vehicles. they do have their own parking...

Facebook Instagram and WhatsApp

 A lot of you probably didn't notice, but Facebook Instagram and WhatsApp went down yesterday because the dsn a and AAA records were attacked. I don't have a full understanding of what that means, but given that the domains became available for purchase, I can make context clues based on the information I already have with my short time as a self-proclaimed internet historian. I'm also the type of person that is more interested in why this happened because what happened is a lot simpler to explain. What's not going to be so simple to explain but the media is going to try to explain anyway are the Pandora papers. The long records of a former employee recording all of Facebook's wrongdoings. I was one of the many watching the highlights of Facebook's hearing, but I wasn't watching them in full like many others. If you weren't involved at all, but you're getting involved now, you're about to learn a lot from the summaries of the Pandora...

Wayne Brady as king dice is a bad move for a lot of reasons

The game Even though none of the characters speak words, they do make reaction noises. King dice's voice in the game is at least interpreted as deep, even if it can't be interpreted as raspy. The history King dice is based off of cab calloway and other jazz musicians of that era. Even though in the game King dice isn't characterized as a jazz singer, they have him come out on stage in the cartoon doing scat. There's definitely an acknowledgment of where his design came from, and they went with Wayne Brady. The fannon For years, The voice dubbing part of the fan community has characterized King dice with a deep but admittedly not always raspy voice. He's also usually accompanied with a faux southern accent. Tennessee / Kentucky... Maybe you can consider it North or South Carolina. Wayne goes against everything that has already been established, and having Wayne do scat was a sensory disorienter. Going against the fannon is never a good move. The union busting Hiring ...
