Black Girl 1972 Film and Education Standards

The hosts review the 1972 film "Black Girl" to illustrate the educational expectations of Maxine Waters' generation. The film depicts a family's struggle with a daughter who drops out of school to pursue dancing, which was then viewed as "popping your tail" and a step toward sex work. This historical perspective is used to highlight Waters' current "disingenuous" support for explicit content.
