SerenityLife 1 year agoWow! I love it. Shoot, Harriet Tubman here reminds me of a bad a$$! Thank you for your positive insight Pierre! ;-) -
Fran Clod 1 year agoI know it's supposed to be serious but I've got to laugh... Sadly using whitey tools or toys to illustrate our history, our past is a backhanded slap salute to our past heroes and heroines. This mock commercial while done in jest, surely was meant to highlight the positivity of Black History... Good show... -
