Re: The Man Who Woke Up as Bo Diddley

Rate: 3 Flag

Con's excellent post and Jink's reply made me think of these clips.

 First an old one from Lenny.

Lenny Henry is one of my favorite comedians, a fine actor and a humanitarian. Check him out. 

 
 And this one from the fabulous "Goodness Gracious Me" with a very young Sanjeev Bhaskar as the father.

Unfortunately I'm at work so can't listen, but will check these out later. Never heard of Lenny before.

I love him. He turns the whole issue of racism on its head.

Thanks, I needed a laugh today -- and this was top-drawer at busting racial stereotypes. By the way, I agree with Lenny Henry, Elvis was a whole lot more black than somebody like Condi Rice.
