All you "'bro' is black slang" idiots


Yeah Black Power and "bro" were synonomous... yeah real synomous. So much so that the only character who does say "bro" in this movie is an Italian truck driver. Yeah really black slang. *Scoffs*
3rd hit blaxploitation movies I've seen without one use by the black or white characters, for the matter
Yeah "bro" is real synomous with 70s black power... yeah real synomous XD

Let's see "Cotton Comes to Harlem," "Superfly," "Come back Charleston, Blue", "Willie Dynamite," "Across 110th street"
Turns out I was right after all.
Starting to think these idiots who think "bro" is white slang are idiots.
Or that the idiots who think it was black slang, allegedly cause blacks apparently used it, are both idiots and making this up. Saw this entire movie, mostly fast forwarded it, so I cramed it down in 50 minutes just to be sure. Skipped the scenes with no dialogue.
And that includes people in the ambience (I just made sure of it to make sure it wasn't in the ambient sound effects). There is what appears to be a usage of "bruh" (but it's because the guy is saying "Brotha" real fast; same was the case in "NJC"), which isn't "bro" by the way.
So you idiots can give it a rest

And no, "bro" and "brotha" are not related slangs, numnuts.
