In any event, the Tuskegee Airmen certainly warrant a fancy $250 million-ish streaming miniseries of their own. What they do not deserve is to be shoehorned as an afterthought into the eighth episode of a nine-episode series ostensibly based on a celebrated history text — Donald L. Miller’s Masters of the Air, lest you forget — that mentions the Tuskegee Airmen on exactly one of its 670 pages. It’s like that episode of The Book of Boba Fett that was actually an episode of The Mandalorian; only the book, in this case, is a real book. And the characters were real people whose descendants are still around to recognize what a slight this lip-service-bordering-on-tokensim is.

As near as I can tell, the Tuskegee material here comes from oral histories given by several of those pilots and from Red Tail Captured, Red Tail Free: Memoirs of a Tuskegee Airman and POW — the 2005 memoir from one of this episode’s new faces, Second Lieutenant Alexander Jefferson, who was 100 years old at the time of his death in 2022! (Technically, the face belongs to actor Branden Cook.) Jefferson was one of the “Red Tails” who found himself interred at Stalag Luft III in August 1944, ten months after Buck, Bucky, Crank, and some of the other airmen we’ve been following since Chapter One got there. I get that bringing the Tuskegees into the story with their arrival at the POW camp would present its own problems. But whoever it was at Amblin, Playtone, or Apple who decided to throw the venerated all-Black fighter squadron — one that operated out of Ramitelli Air Field in Italy, more than a thousand miles away from the England-based 100th Bomb Group whose high-mortality adventures we’ve been following up till now — a few hackneyed-as-hell scenes in the next-to-last episode would strike a blow for representation has judgment so questionable I don’t even want to express my rebuke as a joke.

Apple juice or grape juice.

We've always been told that we were supposed to drink apple juice. It's healthier, cheaper and it tastes better (apparently)

Nobody ever argued with this. It's just the way things go, we drink apple juice.

For a bit (only when I was small) I did too, I drank apple juice but it never tasted that good to me, as I would pour the golden liquid down my throat it almost felt like it was burning me from the inside out, to me it wasn't gold like sweet honey it was gold like a lit burning fire slowly setting everything around me and about me ablaze. My mum would have to force me to drink it and my dad would yell when I didn't.

By the time I was in school I couldn't be forced to drink apple juice anymore but I was scared of being 'different' by drinking something else like grape juice so I didn't drink anything.

If anyone asked

"why aren't you drinking apple juice?"

"Oh I'm just not thirsty right now"

I was still seen as weird though.

But I don't think that was because I wasn't drinking apple juice.

I started getting sick of not drinking anything but the only thing else to drink was... grape juice.

Nobody.

drinks grape juice.

But aren't I a nobody?

I picked up the grape juice carton.

*sipppp*

...

Instead of feeling fire burning my throat there was a river of sweet purple fruit flowing down, It made me unusually happy. I realised that I was definitely weird, people looked at me funny as I drank it and I was definitely getting judged.

But there's nothing I can do, I just like grape juice.
