"Pants On The Ground" Man Is A Hero!


Who knew? Mr. Pants On The Ground is a civil rights hero!

Turns out, "General" Larry Platt actually has a place in history, beyond being a viral video sensation and a ringtone hit.  Platt was beaten by police in the 1965 "Bloody Sunday" march in Alabama.  He got the nickname "General" by civil rights icon Hosea Williams for his role in the march.

He's now working in Atlanta to protest foreclosures in mostly Black neighborhoods.  His work in the ATL is so well-known that the Georgia legislature has proclaimed September 4, 2001 Larry Platt Day in Atlanta.

I knew that guy was special... in a good way, I mean.

By the way, if you want to download that ringtone, here ya go...

Brew Funny: "You Can't Have Kids If You Wear Skinny Jeans"



In 2010, let's send the skinny jeans trend to the gas chamber to die a quick death. You can't rock 'em skinny and low at the same time. Make a choice! Better yet, wear your friggin' size. Let Charlamagne and Lil Duval school you.

Morehouse Bans Saggy Pants


Kudos to the illustrious men of Morehouse College who are being held to the highest of standards when it comes to keeping their couture game on point.

The administration is enacting a dress code later this month, called the "Appropriate Attire Policy."

The new policy includes:
  • a ban on sagging pants
  • no headwear (caps, do-rags or hoodies)
  • no sunglasses worn in class or at formal programs
  • no jeans at major programs
  • no clothing with derogatory messages in words or pictures
  • no women's clothing (ahem!)

Students that violate the new rules risk academic suspension.

Morehouse President Michael Franklin wants the students to become modern "Renaissance Men" who are "well-dressed."

Some students are a bit mixed on the policy shift. One student said: "Outward appearance assists with how you carry yourself, but either way you cannot change someone's mindset."

Does clothing make the man... or does the man make the clothes? What's your call?
