This "game" totally trivializes the Black experience. None of the brothas that I know would find those set of circumstances entertaining or even realistic.
Dang, I wish I knew how to do that BS smilie right about now.

I heard about it on the racist Fox Nex Channel on Hannity and Colmes... So, the engineer's viewpoint was to "show" how hard it is for a Black Man... He has parts of urban blight such as drugs, prison and several welfared children...
Your point of promoting stereotypes and prejudices is true. But don't get mad
, get even...
I think it's a reinforcement of the pre-established bigotry that all people of color, persons of Afrikan descent in particular, encounter by those elistist in europee-on culture... Although I think this engineer's design is inherently flawed by the fact he is a wannabe capatilist, that is non-ingenius design with no more fad-ish than Rubic's cube if that... I think his is testing how "shark-infested" the waters are--eventually he will haveta move, follow, get outta the way or chewed up beyond all recognition...
And notice, there is no mention of a Spirit on the board...
But Parker Brother's puts out the "game" called "Life"... You buy stocks and bonds and life insurance... So this man's game is miniscule compared to the disinformation that is already out there...
