Why the 90's were EMPIRICALLY the best time to be raised as a Black child!

So why were the 90's EMPIRICALLY the best time to be raised as a Black child??? You ask. What about us 60's kids who go a first hand look at Black revolution, who forever changed the way we conceptualized our hair and had the sexy mod clothes and the music. What about the 70's kids who got to live during the age of DISCO DIVAs, blaxpolation and a bevy of media firsts that have helped black even unto today push the envelops for first. Or what about the children of the 80's with funky asymmetrical cuts, rap, spandex culture that is still coveted even in today's world. They had the first rich black family in the form of the Cosby's, Tootie of the facts of life and got to experience the first Black man's bid for president in the form of Mr. Jesse Jackson? Or the new millennium we have a black man as president... Really do I need to say anymore? What you say, could be SO Special in the nineties that hadn't already been covered. Well for started I was raised in the nineties! Duh! lol naw but for real I personally would like to take this time to highlight why the nineties were, well, THE BEST!


1. The nineties fashion!

African Attire
Thug Apparel
historically Black college an university sweaters and hats

2. Movies:

Sankofa,
White man's burden
Independence Day
Boomerang
Polly
Meteor Man
Major Payne
Clueless
Get on the Bus

3. Television
Living Single
Martin
In living Color
Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Oprah
Mantis
Parent Hood
Different World
Teen Summit
My brother and Me
Kenan and Kel
All that

4. Culture
OJ Simpson
Black on black love
Michael Jackson
Hair
Million Man March
Music
Black college and university attendance
music videos witih black women in them
LA Riots

And they were most cool becasue with out all the ground breaking, pride showing, entertainment laden 90's we would have never colmenated unto the new millenium and had Mr. Barack Obama and his family running the country!
