Black Culture Debates

These cards celebrate the shows, films, music and food that bring families and friends together, from Martin and Living Single to Frankie Beverly and Maze at the cookout. Every pick on every card is a favorite to somebody, which is exactly what makes choosing so hard.

Bring one out at a cookout, a family reunion or a game night with the cousins. Read the four picks out loud, give everyone a moment, and then hear the stories that come with each answer. The best part is usually the memories, not the vote.

You will find cards on classic and 2000s sitcoms, film classics and the directors who made them, comedy legends, cookout playlists and soul food, with more on the way.

Every post has the card, the case for keeping each pick, our own take and follow-up questions to keep the table talking. Tap the one you would cut, then send the card to the family group chat.
