So I saw this GOP advert via a twitter post:
And I thought to myself: What kind of black person actually volunteers to do this type of work? So I thought about it and came up with a possible interview scenario:
Scene: A bunch of white folk in power suits at a table. there's a black guy in "cool" clothes interviewing potential actors who is the spokesperson
black guy: So yeah, I wanna thank you guys for answering our call for actors. This is such an important work we're doing here.
Nods all around.
Black guy: So let me tell you that what we are going to do here is for the betterment of our country. We need real leadership so we can turn America around. I know you all want to do your part.
Nods all around
Black guy: Good! Good. now let me explain what we need you to do. Basically this is a video shoot. We gonna have a lady
*a loud "ehem" from one of the white folk.
Black guy: Right. we gonna have a ho in some skimpy clothes.
*a loud "ehem" from another one of the white folk
Black guy: Right, we gonna have a ho in some hoochie clothes, pole dancing and you all get to tote some guns and pick dollars from her ass while she shakes it in front of you.
*odd looks from most of the guys assembled*
Black guy: And every now and then you get to rap: "bitch better give me yo' cash"
*odd looks from most of the guys assembled. One speaks up
Actor: So you want us to act like we're gang members in a rap video, toting guns and essentially act a damn fool?
Black guy: Well you're not acting a fool, you're making a political point.
Actor: Uh-huh.. I see. and how much do we get paid for this?
Black guy: Well we'll pay you 200 bucks for the 1 min shoot.
Actor: The fuck? You gonna have me up in here for 200 bucks?
Black guy:*looks back at his colleagues who look nervous that they may not get anyone to sign up. A sly smile spreads across his face: Did I mention that ho is a white girl?
Actor: Where do I sign?
