Blackfishing is Still Not Acceptable Around Here - Preview to Episode 243

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to announce the next film to be reviewed, the 1970 blaxploitation film, "Cotton Comes to Harlem." The film follows two Harlem cops who investigate a robbery, believing that a reverend has staged it in order to steal the money he's collected for a local fundraiser. The random topic this week is all about RapTV profiting off the backs of the rumor of Jamie Foxx's dire health diagnosis and the prominence of what is often referred to as "blackfishing" which is when white people pretend to be Black in some respect to carry power and influence.
