Books relating to the stories and histories of Black people and other marginalized groups are increasingly being banned by schools and even the federal government.
Anyway, it’s about as controversial as Huck Finn. Except the main heroes are black slaves, not some white kid who helps a single slave. Getting it banned carries serious racist undertones.
Oh there was a couple scenes in some movie don’t know if it is a trope or whatever, that when they are done with their crime stuff, they are going to go home smoke a J and watch roots for three hours.
After some research it originated in the movie “half baked” and has been referenced more than once across other stoner films. So the guy’s not completely off his rocker.
How does quitting pot relate to seeing a movie? 🤨

This answer just raises more question 🤔
It’s a quote from “Gone in sixty seconds”. It’s not a whole trope, just a one off thing.
Also for those not in the know, two hours of Roots barely gets you through the intro. It’s like 1/8th of the movie.

then ask away
Is that Getter?
What is this from?
Can you name more than one movie where they do this? I’m curious.
Gone In 60 seconds, Homegrown, a couple others make reference to it in pot themed movies but that’s about it.
