sweetmeat @sugartraffic It never even occured to me that white folks don't know who so many of these people are... THIS THREAD IS SO IMPORTANT! michaelharriot O @michaelharriot · Dec 13 "Blackfamous" is the gap between black stardom and white anonymity. For instance: The highest possible rating on the "blackfamous" scale would be someone EVERY black person knew but was unknown by EVERY white person. So l ask: Who is the most "blackfamous" person of all time? 8:06 AM · Dec 14, 2019 · Twitter for iPhone
