No...it's about putting on a show and the funeral home upcharging the bereaved for providing the "Grand Elite Honor Guard Hippity Dippity Super-duper Extra Select" pallbearers, one of whom is wearing a Bluetooth. WTF?
I thought it was beautiful. I like that black people still have such reverence for our dead that we want to do something special in our goodbyes as the final rights are literally the last thing you get to do for a loved one. It is a ritual display of love for the lost and comfort to the family.
as a black man i would never act this way, this is why we are misunderstood the way we are - it's no wonder white people can't stand us we make it that way
At the end of the, it is the familys' choice as to how their loved one is honored. Beautiful send off, and prayers go out to this family for their continued stregnth.
I loved this tribute, believed the father wanted a good send off. Others may think it was of not taste, but I sure loved it. We don't live in the dark age of years ago. It's time to spread the greatness and morn no more.
If you just watch this video briefly, the first impression from someone in Europe could be: Ok, cool show. Then again I personally think, what a wonderful way to give the deceased a great home going and put the focus on that person. I wished we had such way for the final way in Germany too. Thank you for sharing this. My prayers and condolences to family and friends of the person who passed. God bless and regards from Munich in Germany.
What a wonderful, „rocking“ and still touchful way to go the last way while celebrating someone’s life. I wished we had that here too. Thank you for sharing and god bless. I hope it helped the family and friends in this sad time.
