After reading the article, "Deconstructing 'Good Times' and 'The Cosby Show': In Search of My 'Authentic' Black Experience," which of these two iconic African American family shows does the author claim to portray a more "authentic Black experience?"
One larger question to consider from the reading is, "Is there even such a thing as an 'authentic Black experience?"
