Video Vault Friday

For some reason, images from this video got in my head after hearing a different song from this band on the way to work.  History has not been a good friend to Public Enemy.  Nothing negative, but I would have thought they would be considered seminal to the early stages of rap  - especially their politic stance.  Today's video is "Can't Truss It." I remember this video when I was in college. The scene when the slave's child is born white still resonates with me.  It's still worth a watch.

Can't Truss It
