Encore Episode: The History of Black and Inter-Racial Sex on Screen

By: Susie Bright

Narrated by: Susie Bright

[Contains explicit content] From 2008: Before comic George Carlin’s recent death, he spoke about dying and that he thought our life cycle was backwards. He believed it would be better to have old age out of the way first and then get younger and younger until we end up in the womb. Next, Susie looks at how Black and inter-racial sex videos have evolved since the 1980s. The adult video boom thrives on bringing sexual secrets into America's bedrooms, capitalizing on taboo interests. With titles like Black Chicks Do It Better and In and Out of Africa, these porn movies presented themes that at the time seemed risky but soon became the norm. Susie's investigative reporting examines why racism penetrated the porn industry. Then, from the mailbag, a listener asks: "Hospital sex. Am I crazy, or does it really happen? Is it weird to be horny while recuperating from surgery?"
