When i come to IMDb for reviews I expect them to cover the content of the show. Its writing, acting etc. I've been sad to find that with this show the reviews I have seen have had nothing to do with that. It has simply been used as an excuse to vent about politics and use racial slurs. I would bet money on the fact that non of my fellow "reviewers" have seen a single frame of the show beyond the trailer. If you choose to be open minded and give it a chance you will find this show to be a fascinating one. No it is not about "hating white people" it is a black writer trying to hold a mirror to the black community.Trying to explore the homophobia and occasional hypersensitivity that is perpetuated and experienced among black people in a traditionally white environment as well as the day to day stigma that they experience as a black person surrounded by people that aren't used to them.
The mistake many detractors have made here is by assuming this show is about them. About white people. But the hard truth is that this just isn't about you its about the black community made for black people to relate to and learn from. That being said if as a white person you choose to give it a chance what you will witness is an insight into a culture you may not have had much experience around. Not to mention the top notch writing and subject matter. If you watch this series and hate it then I wont hold that against you, just please do watch the show before you review it.
