Episode 84: "Plane Dumb"

At first you think, 'hey a Tom and Jerry cartoon'. But this isn't the same cat and mouse Tom and Jerry I grew up watching. Basically it's a pair of two white guys who fly to Africa, get scared, decide to put on black face in order to fit in, and then act like a couple of dopes. On some ol' vaudeville, Amos and Andy jokes. This stuff was real funny back in 1932. But the next few episodes highlight different perceptions of Africa. Enjoy. Peace.
