 Jul 19th, 2016. This week's episode "Black and White" Degrassi drops not one, but TWO n-bombs. It was the 80's and that was somehow more acceptable? It's not just thrown around, but still, not sure if you hear it on the CBC today. Definitely not on a kids show! I'm joined by Kweku Winful (@kwekugotjokez) and Alan Lewis (@TheAlanShane) to go back to Degrassi! 

B.L.T. fights with an upperclassman who makes a racist comment. Later, when he asks Michelle to the dance, her parents forbid her to go with him because he is black. Meanwhile, Spike needs money to afford a babysitter, but, when she applies for a job, she is rejected because of her hairstyle.
