eating while black: Ria's Bluebird, Atlanta, GA
http://eatingwhileblackatlanta.blogspot.com/2009/08/rias-bluebird-atlanta-ga.html
Thursday, August 27, 2009. Ria's Bluebird, Atlanta, GA. 421 Memorial Drive SE. Atlanta, GA 30312. Ria's Bluebird is a little side-of-the-road cafe you could easily. Drive past and miss - and that would be a damn shame. Settled. Across the street from historic Oakland Cemetery in a neighbor-. Hood undergoing full blown gentrification, Ria's is a culinary. Experience not to be missed. I chose Ria's as my last meal before flying out of Atlanta and I. And the small parking lot and the smaller restaurant were.

Sunday, December 8, 2013. Too Cool for School. I am a Frank Darabont fan. But watching "Mob City" I suspect he might be better at adapting material than creating it (although "L.A. Noir: The Struggle for the Soul of America's Most Seductive City," a non-fiction book by John Buntin. Is allegedly the inspiration for "Mob City"). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Blackplush: Lost in the Cloud Atlas
http://blackplush.blogspot.com/2012/10/lost-in-cloud-atlas.html
Sunday, October 28, 2012. Lost in the Cloud Atlas. I don't smoke or drink but after watching the Wachowski's. Cloud Atlas" I felt. Like I was sharing the doobie Tom Hanks. And Halle Berry passed back and forth. During the Luisa Rey. Movement of this filmic symphony. Cloud Atlas" is the kind of movie you feel you should dress. Up for - like going. To the theater or going to the symphony. And,. Unfortunately, that is the kind. Of audience it will ultimately draw. Atlas requires the type of sophistication.

Blackplush: Rogue Behavior
http://blackplush.blogspot.com/2013/04/rogue-behavior.html
Monday, April 22, 2013. I recently watched the first two episodes of Thandie Newton's. On DirecTV's Audience Network. It is gritty, fast-paced entertainment that feels oddly British (I kept. Expecting to see the iconic "Egg" Building in the background) even. Though the story is supposed to be taking place in Oakland,. It is probably not surprising that the show appears wrapped in the. Union Jack when the chief writer, Matthew Parkhill, and most of. On various buildings designating. His character could ha...

Blackplush: Spurs that jingle, Django, jingle
http://blackplush.blogspot.com/2013/01/spurs-that-jingle-django-jingle.html
Tuesday, January 1, 2013. Spurs that jingle, Django, jingle. Is a remarkable achievement. Remarkable for reasons that have everything to do with its subject manner - the antebellum south and its cruel and peculiar institution of slavery - and nothing to do with it. It is remarkable primarily because it is a compilation of improbable things: a nearly three hour long spaghetti western; a $100 million blaxploitation movie (in fact, perhaps, the "granddaddy" of all. Django resolves to walk through the fires ...

Friday, July 19, 2013. I recently came across this oddity called White Man's Burden. Is in charge of his window and he. Will decide when it opens and closes. The teller suggests they visit the ATM at the back of the bank. When Thomas protests that he needs more money than that, the teller tells him to come back on Monday and closes his window. There is no hint of brutal oppression by the black ruling class and race plays no role in Pinnock's firing. A black delivery man caught in the same circumstanc...
