Back in the 1970s was when I first saw pics of Pam Grier, and fell in love. Now to put that into context: interracial love / lust was not only frowned upon back in the old Racist Republic, but being caught in the act would have resulted in imprisonment for “immorality”.
Two words: worth it.
And in glorious Technicolor:
Yeah, “Blaxploitation” yadda yadda yadda.
Shoot me now.
I graduated High School in ‘67, should have been ‘66 but thats another story. I went to a small catholic HS in Detroit. In my sheltered world interracial dating was very uncommon. In my class only one white boy and black girl openly dated each other. Many years later she told me the nuns did everything they could to sabotage the relationship.
I would have risked legal ramifications to knock boots with Pam. Only caveat would be that she was one of Richard Pryor’s harem, and God only knows where that thing had been. You might have been safer in a Thai whorehouse.
