PLANKING OR PLAYING OURSELVES

PLANKING? ? ?



u see it...i see it....everyones seen it...ive seen a whoooole lot of this new craze called-"planking". Being that the rules r
basically look like a moron in odd places and take a pic for the internet....im guessing its a new age game..not much thought to it....WHATEVA THO...
Possibly,this could just be a harmless game thats intention is fun....but i honestly dont think ive sipped enuff alc to wanna go planking......but i be blazed often...n no planking thoughts 4 this dude...n trust me...i got a helluva imagination

















ON THE FLIPSIDE....
you can do your own research and notice that the act and positioning in the game "PLANKING" has been strongly affiliated with the times of slavery. On the ships africans were placed in very similar positions chained from foot to hand so that they could provide more space on the slave ships....i wont even go into how disgusting of a thought this was...especially from another human to do to another human...
:::blanks moment out to focus:::
well with that being said...im not sure how u feel...but...ive seen lotta mixed feelings on this n i felt why not speak on it as well....











Do we pass a blind eye and let this term/act be forgotten as one meaning and reborn as another......or do we still remind ourselves that our past was still reality....hmmm

  1. I enjoyed this article man! A lot of people don't know about the slavery part of it. I think people actually do it because they just think it's fun. I can't front though I have laughed at a few I've seen.
