Black Boy Suffering Is A Mood.
Click to Unmute
A racial slur shared during sex uncouples a black man from time and place.
A black man has sex with a white woman, until she calls him the N-word. The incident concusses him into actively reliving a comparable event with another white woman of his recent past who connives him into sexual role-play that also involves the N-word.

As he’s violently whiplashed back and forth between these two terrible timelines, forced to confront the simultaneous experiences of hearing one woman's rationalities of the merits of what she said and being positioned into the racial sex fantasy of another woman's wildest dreams, he begins to lose grasp of time & place as these dual episodes somehow start to unlikely converge.

Ultimately unable to reframe regretful incidents of the past against the reality of the present as these coinciding events race to their inevitable conclusion, he's left with only one solution...endure it.
