ABCD american born confused desi. im brown, desi to me is like nigga. only we can say it. but really. fuckin everyone should use it and put angel on youtube you cowards
It took Grandad that long to asky hiw Ruckus works all those jobs at once? Also Ebony is perfect, she even said A Pimp Named Slickback's full name including the "A Pimp Named" part without having to be corrected.
This episode could really be seen as Riley's personal revenge against Robert for all the ass beatings. It sucks, but really grandad is a cautionary tale on why not to be your own worse enemy and to have self confidence in your relationship
Ebony originally referred to a specific kind of hard dark brown/black wood material. People the. Started using it to refer to other things of that color, but it’s like how words like orange was a fruit before a color. Similarly, Ebony is the wood material, and uses as color are meant to reference that wood material.
No cap, I’ve met a few Ebony’s in my life, and I had a friend who was Riley in the situation, and made me get in my head just like Robert, and I fumbled all of them. It’s funny how Riley is Nicole and Granddad is Luna💀
This was really about how Ebony Brown defies all the stereotypes that black women have lol to the point where it's inconceivable. Ebony never gets offended by anything nor does she use the n word. She's above it all lol. Even her name satirizes this point. Aaron's way of poking fun of black women while not poking fun at black women. Genius 😂😂😂
4:30 I don't know how to tell you but this is how black men, especially *old* black men talk about women. Sometimes in front of other black women and half of them are either dating or married to a black woman.
@@chrischika7026 Oh no, he definitely realizes. Chris seems to be the most perceptive and not so ignorant one out of the group, so he definitely realizes how his marriage is similar to Tom and Sara’s. Plus, i know for a fact bro reads these comments or hears about them from the others 😂
Lol they didn't include Tom saying "there's nothing wrong with black women" with Robert saying "yeah but you still married a white woman". I was wondering how Chris would react.
@@McArthur-Posey Are you kidding this is the one time the Boondocks have portrayed a woman in a positive manner. Not in a complex way like most of the men but it's the one time the writers aren't being shit to women, double for a black woman.
Bathroom attendants used to be a job older black men and women used to get exclusively, and I was raised ((I'm 57) to give them a tip, because they were probably struggling without the fulltime job they used to have, and this was their supplement money. I understand the couch's comments, but I felt a little triggered because, like I've heard on here, everyone deserves respect, no matter what they do.
RE: The Restroom Attendant. Back in the day higher tier clubs had these employees situated in a parlor room separated from the actual restroom. The parlor consisted of the items shown plus there was a couch with a matching Accent chair. Don't know if these kinds of luxuries are still available today since I no long frequent clubs. Great reactions.
The "original" ebony refers to the timber that was originally used to create the black keys of a piano and ivory the white keys.. Hence the name of the song 😊
I never watched this episode before!! Thank you for making me discovering it! It contains a powerful messagge... also, it was VERY FUN! And... there was an HIGH DOSE of Uncle Ruckus! Hw was on-screen for 40% of the episode, like! And that's adorable!!
wait i really thought that desi was the best/most respectful way to call south asian people (pakistan, bangladesh, india, etc.). i actually thought it came from native language
My introduction to the word was “Ebony and Ivory”; Dante’s pistols. It’s not a word I use because I’m aware how it sounds, but I primarily associate with DMC and materials.
Even if true, that's probably more due to the tendency for characters you're not supposed to like to get drawn/designed as fat than any sort of bias on her part.
Are you talking about another show because on The Boondocks the fat characters are meant to be disliked. That's why the writers and animators made them all unappealing with bad personalities
11:55 guitar hero is for guitars rock band is for singing bleeding guitar bass and drummer there are differences don't disrespect guitar hero especially three
Ebony and Ivory is sung by Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder and as fun as it would be I don't think they were singing about an intimate relationship. Piano keys were at one point made of ebony wood for the black keys and ivory for the white keys, hence the name. Just about any kind of interracial relationship.
Lady in the beginning trying so hard to turn Ebony into something it's not. 😂 Ma'am it's not that serious. It's literally a name. I know two women named Ebony. Theirs a magazine named Ebony. Ebony and ivory is a wildly popular song. It's pretty much everything BUT what she's trying to make it. It has nothing to do with objectification or even sexuality for that matter 😂
None of them were saying that the term is inherently negative or sexual. But that the term has become synonymous with sexualization and or objectification. This is why Navi made a comparison to the term "Desi" as well. Another word that from her own culture is not inherently negative, but currently has become synonymous with sexualization of a group of people.
@@darryljack6612 agree to disagree. The group wasn't making it negative but that one lady by herself sure was trying. It took damn near everyone else disagreeing with her before she let it go
@@chrischika7026 Except it quite literally is in many spaces. It is the exact reason why they said no to Pat when asked if they could look it up. Because the word has (though not inherently) sexual connotation to it. This is again why she made the Desi comparison as a point of reference to what she means. A word from her culture that she literally stated is fine and not inherently negative, but has weird connotations.
Uncle Ruckus is not wrong about running in the park. I was running in a park years ago with two friends and had a cop car pull us over asking us if we were ok. Just an excuse to harass us. Why would anything be wrong when you see us jogging like everyone else in the park? This is the life of a black man
The normies thinking as people with normal incomes, rich people do NOT wash their own hands, just like they can't press the elevator button themselves, or open their own doors
Seems like a lot of people self sabotage relationship especially when things are going well. It’s a weird thing humans do. Like they think they don’t deserve to be so happy. 😢
She does come off as super insecure just watch her body language in some of the videos she acts like some black girl is going to come and snatch chris away from her 😂
Yea but words can have different connotations in different places, its origin may not be derogatory and it may not be seen as bad in other countries, but it definitely is in America. I'm not disagreeing with you but yea.
@@mrkingdrago1013 are you guys sure because I've always heard that Oriental is used on objects that come from Asia like an Oriental rug but it doesn't to people
I personally think they are toooo woke to even watch Boondocks if they cant laugh at Ruckus. If they like Rielly think deeper. Rielly is the black man that Ruckus describes with every sentence. If you only like Rielly the joke is on you because you like the way black people like Ruckus describes act, but cant handle it being called out
Because that is kind of the point of Ruckus, he is this show's version of cartman, essentially One of the worst human beings you could meet. You can find him funny, and they do laugh at the ridiculous nature of the things he say. But the character also has the purpose of invoking groaning, cringing, or face palming because of the ideals he touts and the people he is parodying.

This will go down as one of Robert’s biggest fumbles😂
Definitely his biggest fumble
Humanity’s*
Facts! I wanted Ebony for myself 😂
@@QU4D_ShakurSus stare 😮
As expected for the Grandfather of fumbling
Ebony Brown was so good she turned out Ruckus
16:50 Damn that one tugged on the heart abit RIP Witherspoon
Probably the writers way of expressing uncertainty over whether there'd be another season.
"I don't think I have many episodes left."
Me: ☹️😭(shatters into pieces)
It took Grandad that long to asky hiw Ruckus works all those jobs at once?
Also Ebony is perfect, she even said A Pimp Named Slickback's full name including the "A Pimp Named" part without having to be corrected.

Ruckus: 4:18 "The key to happiness is to eliminate all black women from your life"
Marketa: *Leans into Chris*
Chris: *Nods*
AYO 🤣🤣🤣
lmaooo I saw that, embarrassing.
Lol i noticed that also what was that about
I saw that too🤣🤣
ayo.
why do you have sokka kissing katara.
Ebony was such an amazing person that she converted Ruckus
She ALMOST converted Ruckus!
17:57 "Mothafucka, did I not just say fire fly"!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Pretty sure ebony is just a pretty shade of black used to describe wood/jewels, but it has become very sexualized
That's right its like ivory
Ebony originally referred to a specific kind of hard dark brown/black wood material. People the. Started using it to refer to other things of that color, but it’s like how words like orange was a fruit before a color.

There is no human being that doesn’t get offended by anything. Ebony doesn’t exist.
Ebony has to be perfect and inhuman to be acceptable but grandad gets to be old, pudgy and crazy.
@@preciousnunique the hypocrisy is wild ain't it.
@@preciousnunique Grandad never dates women his age. For some reason......
@@verdadsin8954 yeah "some reason"
14:16 Robert had his first “I’LL SLAP EVERYBODY UP IN HERE!” Moment 😂

Chris was annoyed when Ruckus ranted about black women then remember he’s Tom Dubois. 🤣
LMFAO OH MY GOD HE’S UNCLE CHRIS 😭😭😭
Am I missing something? Just because he’s married to a white woman doesn’t mean he hates black women
I wonder is chris realizes tom is suppose to be him lol.
@@chrischika7026 Oh no, he definitely realizes. Chris seems to be the most perceptive and not so ignorant one out of the group, so he definitely realizes how his marriage is similar to Tom and Sara’s. Plus, i know for a fact bro reads these comments or hears about them from the others 😂

I know right, me too 😂😂😂
Betta just skip over that 😂
Amazed they mentioned “Ebony and Ivory” without mentioning DMC Dante’s dual pistols named “Ebony and Ivory.”
This is the most positive depiction of a woman *ever* on The Boondocks. That's a huge accomplishment
Na not most. Not even half. A loud minority. Period.
@@McArthur-Posey Are you kidding this is the one time the Boondocks have portrayed a woman in a positive manner. Not in a complex way like most of the men but it's the one time the writers aren't being shit to women, double for a black woman.
ebony is literally wood. a black colored wood, coveted by carpenters everywhere. wonderful material.

Great reactions.
5:08 This is how most black men talk and think. Listen to how they react to Ruckus, in many ways they agree with him.
Lol, I love how Navee almost said Get the fuck out when Uncle Ruckus barged in the house.
aww hell nah if I fumbled a women like THAT I'd have to end it all💀
I totally understand the depression and stuff but you shouldn't give up brah
8:39 This is how most black men want black women to react to the most outlandish rants. And it's why Ruckus falls in love with her.😂
Cannot get enough of Uncle Ruckus😂🤣
I KNOW!!!
17:55 🤣🤣🤣 chris is funny when dont try
11:05 Cue "Makin' Good Love" By Avant.
13:50 -14:00 Oh no! Netorare antagonists! Run, Grandad, Run!
And just like in Netorare, She gonna cheat! 😂
So this whole time “Desi” was pronounced “Day-zy?” I feel like the Token episode now because I thought it was pronounced “Dess-sea”
Bruh you aren't the only one this whole time I was trying to figure out wtf they where saying. Till I found your comment lol
If Ebony can make someone like Uncle Ruckus fall in love anything's possible.
eah!
Ahhh Ruckus, he's a scumbag but he's also the best character
funniest
To me it’ll always be a tie between Ruckus & Riley for the funniest lines in the show.
Pat really has no shame in laughing at Ruckus jokes lmao
As anyone shouldn't have!
good he keeps it real. instead of half-assing it like the others
Why,Aren’t you supposed to laugh at Ruckus, because of the dumb things he says?
@@alabastercalhoun That's the point! Probably someone think they look better, if they fake disgust over Ruckus' jokes...
I don't blame him, the jokes are so ridiculous you can't even get offended, so rather just laugh
5:24 thank you for using it the right way Mickey 😂
I had no idea there was a negative connotation to desi. I just thought it meant Indian
Of note is that ebony in the real world is also a type of wood specifically called ebony.
Ruckus: 4:18 "The key to happiness is to eliminate all black women from your life"
Markets: Leans into Chris
shame
chill
12:21 I think this is a reaction from the writers how there are no black women in the cast
Ruckus had some good jabs this episode
"Some"? God, he knocked out me on his first appearence on the screen! Lol
Rana was DISGUSTED 🤣🤣🤣
10:16 "she's amazing"
Nobody else noticed that?😂
Gina Torres was married to Laurence Fishburne when this was made.
The "original" ebony refers to the timber that was originally used to create the black keys of a piano and ivory the white keys.. Hence the name of the song 😊

Poor Grandad freeman,will he ever find real love?
I don't think so! Lol
6:50 That's where that music comes from? I hear that all the time in Cjdachamp's videos
13:16 Y'all don't think this is anything? "Feminist group" woman logic
6:20 Huey your grandad invented hypocrisy
When i hear ebony i think of ebony magazine which is not derogatory.
12:50 Tom did the exact same thing in season 2
Terrific commentary from The Normies.
thats news to me @daisy. Thanks for educating me on this.
wait i really thought that desi was the best/most respectful way to call south asian people (pakistan, bangladesh, india, etc.).
i actually thought it came from native language
The close up "ELEVEN" edit had me dying lmfao
So are they not showing the Jimmy Reb watch?
I hope you guys check out Black Dynamite after finishing Boondocks
3:14 wait till you start archer.
Pat is wild, can we look up ebony 😂
Ruckus is the most vile and disgusting character I’ve ever seen and I love listening to him 😂
Awesome reaction of my favorite episode of The Boondocks!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
5:05 Chris this is just the Boondocks writer's room put on screen
I guess I don't go to fancy enough restaurants/clubs. Never have I ever had a dude offer me a hand towel in the bathroom.
The episode where Grandad fucked up BAD!
Huey and Riley: Again?!
My introduction to the word was “Ebony and Ivory”; Dante’s pistols. It’s not a word I use because I’m aware how it sounds, but I primarily associate with DMC and materials.
Do anyone know if they will react to X-men 97
Not sure what that word Navi is saying at the beginning, i have never heard that before.
19:30 where the hell did that come from?! 🤣
Great Reactions Everyone
I've noticed Rana has a lot of dislike for fat animated characters when her fiance is also a bigger fella lol
😂😂😂
Touch grass
Who is her fiance?🤔
Even if true, that's probably more due to the tendency for characters you're not supposed to like to get drawn/designed as fat than any sort of bias on her part.
Are you talking about another show because on The Boondocks the fat characters are meant to be disliked. That's why the writers and animators made them all unappealing with bad personalities

Because that is kind of the point of Ruckus, he is this show's version of cartman, essentially One of the worst human beings you could meet.
