CHECK OUT MY ENHANCED VERSION OF THIS CLIP--Much better quality. In this clip from civil rights activist Petey Greene's Washington DC television program in the 70s, Greene explains how to eat watermelon. Utterly bizarre. Also, pointers on eating corn and fried chicken. There is, by the way, an AWESOME book out all about Petey, titled "Laugh if you like" by Lurma Rackley...you can get it on Amazon. Oscar nominee Don Cheadle portrays Petey Greene in a 2007 movie based loosely on Petey's life titled "Talk To Me" which is available on DVD. The song at the end of Petey's video (used as his show's theme music) is "Amazon" by Earl Klugh from "The Best of Earl Klugh, Vol. 1".

Listen, some folk like to turn this in to some kinda racist comedy, but they really missed the point. Listen to what Mr. Greene says at 2:00 - 2:03! That is what it's about 3 F'n seconds. I live by it! You should.

Petey Greene was an African American Icon! Short changed of his place in history! Some of you may find it funny or even add ya racist comments but any black american who experienced there youth in the 70's-80's and before knows just what he is sayin. R.I.P Petey Greene!

What he's referring to is the, "nigga's put too much salt on their watermelon" comment. And corn is pretty much just starch, so it's not necessarily "good" for you.
