Switched at Birth : Emmet's Situation, and Daphne and Mingo

Ok, this episode I really thought that when Daphne and Bay found Emmet on the ledge, I really thought that after he told Bay everything he was going to just fall back and it would be over. I mean I was sitting there talking to the television and my mom was like wtf? Also that whole racism thing at the end was just kinda stupid. I mean it's dreads and a fake set of whatever they are called in his mouth, I understand some people might think that it is racist, but going to social media about it is stupid. This is completely un-related to this topic, but every season they usually have a topic, like rape and stuff like that, I think this season might be depression and racism.

What was so racist about Mingo dressing up as Lil Wayne though? I just don't see the problem.

I don't either

For most of us, there is absolutely no problem. It was a costume. The point is to show that these issues, no matter how silly they may seem, are pretty divisive. I think Daphne's friend was rude and all those comments at the end were dumb. But, there is a segment of the population that feels as they do. Hopefully in next week's episode, they will explore the contrasting opinions in regards to this issue.

If you can't dazzle them with you wits, wow them with your tits

I really do believe these things should be talked about in TV, despite the fact that many people especially conservatives who view most entertainment nowadays as "liberal propaganda." Thing is, we don't talk about these things at home, or in school, or at work, or anywhere else, because we want to remain ignorant about subjects that confuse us or make us uncomfortable or deviate from what society deems as normal. So, how do we relay the message and get people talking? We go to TV, where we can reach almost everyone. I know for a fact Switched at Birth will mess this up but I'll remain optimistic.

I wa thinking about the episode this morning and I agree that it's about informing and hopefully talking. I didn't see it as racist, I saw someone micmicking Lil' Wayne. I hope they do explore all sides, and get to the root cause. Why was the girl offended? What feelings of low self-esteem did it present to make her feel threatened.

And what fresh Hell is this?, Malory from Archer(Dorothy Parker)

why was it racist? He dressed up as his favourite singer (That was the theme of the party) and Lil Wayne really looks like that.

I'm not sure the writers will get it right, considering how they handled campus rape.

imperfection is an altogether attainable human goal, and love is acceptance of imperfections.
