Black. White.


Taking the Lord’s admonition to “judge not, lest ye be judged,” these writers took two families and literally had them switch skin colors (thanks to Hollywood makeup). This experiment resulted in some beautiful lessons that get uncomfortable for everyone involved, but everyone should see this. Each family member was fascinating to watch: from the over enthusiastic and emotional white-turned-black mother to the easily-put-off black-living-white mother that couldn't stand her. The white-to-black father was in denial about the racisim around him, yet the ongoing debate between he and his counterpart was fun yet almost tiring in its futility for either of the other to come around to a new point of view. The kids were awesome, undergoing change. The boy learned that he needs to appreciate his heritage and grow up a little instead of blowing everything off; and the girl learned courage by joining a slam poetry performance group.
