Flatbush premiered Monday at 8:30 p.m. on channel seven in an effort, I suppose, to reassure the viewers that they need not fear any elevation of the precious lack of quality on television. This program seemed somehow even more offensive than The $1.98 Beauty Show because it came from a network with a history of excellence and pretensions of continued quality.

...assumption, maintained by black and white men and, women alike, that the black woman somehow has too much and needs to be held down to allow her man to catch up, has probably accounted for unimaginable numbers of wasted talent, creativity, and lives.
