Montage of Blackface performers and Tv shows portraying African American. Was featured in Spike Lee's film Bamboozled. This is what they thought of us then and still think of us today. It's time for a change.

    I teach critical race studies and history and this is an invaluable resource to teach my students what blackface and minstrel performance was(is). Thank you Spike Lee and the uploaders of the clip.

    This hardly a satire though. It's a montage of images from pre-1950 (including one from Birth of a Nation which was controversial THEN) shoved on the end of a film made in the year 2000. I miss the old Spike from the "Do the Right Thing" days, where he actually presented racial divides as a difficult and heartbreaking issue, rather than this Kill Whitey shit where just blurts out 1970s black panther crap.

    when i was watching this movie, this ending creeped me out. it was kind of horrific without showing any blood or gore. i think that's what he was trying to leave the viewer with, an unsettling feeling, that this type of shit isn't too far from what's going on in today's world.

    black people have lower IQ than white people on average, just saying. Give all the reasons you want, fact is a fact.
