Those of us who use Google like our grandparents used lard in their food know that Google images is an invaluable tool to stalk…er…find pictures of people, places and things. There’s nothing in the world that I haven’t seen! If I hear of something and don’t currently have a mental image of it, BOOM. Google that ‘ish.I assume that’s how aliens will learn about us. Google images. But have you ever done a google image search on  Black People? If not? Don’t worry. We were bored this morning.

#1 – Soooo, I tried to get a bigger version than the thumbnail nd it just doesnt exist anymore. I wish I knew what this says because it looks like a white girl.  It says black people and there may be a black dude behind her (OF COURSE), but thats a white girl. I’m uncomfortable with this being the #1 image for black people. Atleast its not fried chicken.

#2 – Yes. This IS the number 2 image for the phrase black people.  I mean thats reasonable right? When I think black people I don’t actually envision real live black people, I imagine white people in black face. Thats the type of black folks I can deal with.

#3 – I may be a horrible Black Guy because I’m not absolutely sure who this is. I believe its Sojourner Truth or Harriet Tubman.  it was included in an article on the underground railroad so I guess these are reasonable guesses . I understand this being part of our culture and all but really? #3?  In the year 2009 – #3? Can’t we get some modern blackness? MLK would be fine.

#4 – Crying black people.  We’ve had possibly racist, definitely racist, slavery black and now CRYING black pictures. This just can’t get any worst.

#5 – I stand corrected.
