Great DU quote!
Let's give credit where it's due, DUers.


"there are probably more African Americans that say disco is not dead than support our president"

- MissWaverly



A wonderful sentiment expressed in a truly artistic way. :woohoo:

1. Disco is dead?
Now what I am supposed to do with my collection of doubleknit leisure suits ?

I am glad to hear that so many eyes are open in the African American community.

5. America (pop. 300M): Disco is dead Rest of world (pop. 6B): Disco lives!
One day, however, they may say America's culture is dead.

For the first time in history

Tall blonde dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean

She took over heaven
And she did what she had to do

She fought every Angel
To rearranged the sky
So that each and every woman
Could find the perfect guy

It's raining men

Don't get yourself Weather Girls

I feel stormy wheather moving in
About to begin
Hear the thunder
Don't you loose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed

6. ugh...
I had to read an article in my Urban Politics class senior year by a black columnist from the Washington Times espousing that view and critically analyze it. Jackass went so far as to say he was glad his ancestors were slaves because his quality of life was better than that of the descendants of Tutsi that were not made slaves.

Any idea how hard it is to analyze something that has no intellectual merit at all?
