The Blind Side is the improbable true story of Michael Oher, a poor black boy from Memphis who ends up in the care of a wealthy white family across town and becomes a prized football recruit. It's also the story of how Oher's maturation coincides with a fundamental shift in pro football's economics. Join the discussion here.

Friday Random Ten.

blackthought

From the creative, dynamic and thoroughly Roots-addled mind (at least this week) of Shani-o, we’re celebrating Black Thought Appreciation Week here at PostBourgie. It all started with this hot fire of a cypher including Mos Def and Eminem that G.D. posted in this spot last week.

But really, does thereĀ  need to be an explanation for why we’re showing Thought some love?

Here’s the link to our Twitter feed commemorating the occasion.

Now. I shall. Proceed …

1. Water (Shani-o)

2. Quills (Blackink)

3. No Alibi (Shani-o)

4. Stay Cool (Blackink)

6. Web (Shani-o)

7. Livin’ in a New World (Blackink)

8. 75 Bars (Shani-o)

9. Reality TV (Blackink)

10. Silent Treatment (this was a suggestion from Mr. Adam Serwer. A damn good one at that)

And if we missed anything, I’m sure G.D. will be around a little later in the comments to chin-check us.

As always, hope you all have a great weekend.
