Inside Eddie’s Daydream #7

Luke Cage

I just recently finished the entire season of Luke Cage on Netflix, and I must admit that I’m impressed. The actor is mediocre at best, but what he represents and goes up against, is something that needed to be brought up and addressed.

• Black on black violence
• The disdain of “Nigga” or any swear words
• His pious mannerism, in reverence of Christianity
• Mass incarceration
• Crooked politicians in the black community
• Drug lords who wield power over the black community
• Crooked policemen
• Excellent policemen
• How law isn’t always ‘doing what’s right’
• Trayvon Martin  and racial profiling a.k.a ‘implicit bias’
• The Black Superman leader

I mean I can go on and on, but this show is excellent. I will write about this later on. It will probably take a couple days to finish.
