K0MMIEsays...vote down for cheesy cutting effects.
joedirtsays...I'm voting just so this has a fair chance since K0mmie cut it off at the knees. But, I don't like bloggers and their rants.. I don't get MySpace celebrity
mlxsays...Thank joedirt. I understand kommie's vote, but posted this partly because of what I think is it's significance in the archetype of social change.
I am also simply proud of this girl for standing up for herself to her bigoted parents. I live in a Southern, small community where there is alot of racism. My kids understand that their friends might be racist because the parents probably are, too. It's a tough cycle to break and this video epitomizes that.
K0MMIEsays...i get what she was trying to do, but there are better mediums to state this kind of message, video is not it.
mlxsays...Why not? Who dictates what formats are acceptable for social change?
K0MMIEsays...the boring meter dictates it.
mlxsays...Social Activism doesn't require a huge production, just an open-minded audience.

Go Emily. The sad thing is that her parents were probably at Woodstock or something similar giving lipservice at least to her ideas. Now they drive BMWs and shop at Nieman Marcus. Can an entire generation be labeled sell-outs?
charlatantricsays...Well that was pointless.

You sir, charlatantric are our official gloomy gus. ;-)
Kruposays...dag: I think you give her parents too much credit. But who knows?
K0MMIE: really, if you find it boring just skip it!
charlatantricsays...How's he supposed to know it's stupid unless he watches it? For three minutes of his time, he's entitled to comment on it.
I am gloomy. Maybe it's because I grew up watching a lot of talk shows, but this shit is soooooo Sally Jesse Raphael circa 1989 that I don't see any reason to put this one single girl on a pedastal.

Somebody's got a bad case of the mondaaaays. [/OfficeSpace]
(It's Monday here in OZ)
quantumushroomsays...It's only bad if Emily is hot. The world may never know.
fieldsrsays..."the boring meter dictates it."- awesome
"Nobody does anything about racism"? Umm, MLK, Rosa Parks, James Merideth just to name just a few of the biggies.
KaiErsays...What... is she living in 1982? To make it sound like this is something spectacular is a tad overdoing it.

siftbotsays...The duration of this video has been updated from unknown to 3:04 - length declared by bareboards2.
