“Crushed little Black boys can’t dance. Can’t swim. Can’t play…so they rob and steal. They sit on buses, glancing out the window trying to keep pain down. Crushed little Black boys DON’T NEED FATHERS! THEY NEED LOVE, HUGS, KISSES, AND REMINDERS THAT THEIR SELF WORTH AIN’T NOWHERE NEAR THEIR GENITALS. THEY NEED ENCOURAGEMENT. THEY NEED. THEY ARE NEEDY. Sensitive Black boys don’t exist because we turn them into monsters and then ask why they’re in pain.”

The Fosters 1x02
A much better episode. So many characters. So much opportunity for development. I like how the show displays the ups and downs of the different interactions..
I’m not here for Brandon’s insecure girlfriend. Girl, bye.
Or Mike. In any aspect.
Or Marianna’s bullshit. Hopefully we get more backstory, and I can understand why she is the way she is.
I love Jesus. I don’t even know why. I just do.
I love Brandon. Complete opposite of Jesus, but I love them both.
Good storylines so far. I don’t think I’m able to become fully invested into the show until they’re developed more.
Better episode than the first, that’s for sure.
The Fosters 1x01 - Review
Not a very memorable episode. Okay acting. There are endless storylines for this series to develop and pursue though, so good thing there.
I don’t know. It was okay. I’ll give it another chance, and see if the show catches its footing.
S/n: whoever is in charge of music, great job.
Decided to start watching The Fosters. Seems like something I’m gonna like..*fingers crossed*
Review coming.
