@Talentz92 No, He feels that in his family's pursuit of education and wealth, they have lost their sense of history and racial pride. Suddenly dishes like "Hoppin John" are beneath them, and too "poor" to serve to guests. His problem with his daughter's suitor plays into the whole "House Negro/Field Negro" stereotype. If your not familiar, look it up. The young man is not mixed by the way, He's just light-skinned.

when she said " you'll have to forgive my husband's country ways" Samuel should have kept his mouth shut and not said anything. Instead he goes " i completely understand" talk about adding salt to the injury..lol

Why was he mad over some food? Is there something that happened before this that made him mad?

I like how all the children look at the Mom when he says "Field Nigger" XD

[BigBitchesCarHouse]

He's like "NIGGA BE CRAZY ?"

funny how every time chalky asks a question, his wife answers the house nigger instead of her husband. women find out you headed to medical school and their tongues get attracted to your butthole or somethin'? my country ways put da food on dis' got damn table!

Such a powerful scene!.. I ADORE CHALKY WHITE!! You have to admit, that in every scene he is in, he gives a realist performance! You are the man Chalky!!!

@nodinitiative I know. We have Blackeyed peas ( Hoppin John) and Black beans and rice regularily. We love it !! High protein, great taste and meat is optional! I'm not black either-- I amuse myself by speaking and writing in dialect sometimes.. I do a marvelous Hillbilly as well. I mean no disrespect to anyone and agree with your assesment of the import of family traditions. Too much emphasis on upward mobility and acquisitions in this sad world. What we need is love and tolerance.

@JBWIOOP Chalky may nt be educated but he has engh smart in him to send his childrn to schl n to ensure that they dn't get involve in crime. He may lve money but he has shown his loyalty n honor time n time again both to his allies n his pple.

I really cringe when his wife said dat he still has his country ways.

I really hve a lot of respect 4 Chalky, he knows he is black but he does nt act like a nigger, he is acting as a human being who gives respect to those who also gives him respect.

@TheEldonfitz hoppin john a traditional Black food.

Anyway, i'm not Black, but i have to agree on one thing, when a family decides that their cultural traditional food is no longer good enough for them, that's when you know that they are fucked up.

I would rather have available my traditional food than simply expensive food. I would have tears in my eye if my Mama or grandmother made me the food she used to make me when i was a young man.

Women in the kitchen is no joke, its a blessing
