Black history – a history of positive social change, of moving forward for the good of all. This progress is sometimes manifested in popular culture, and we’ve got a collection of T-Shirts celebrating these advances that feature many of the heroes and heroines of the story . . . Not to forget that every individual who fights for equal rights for humans is themselves heroic.

In the 1990’s Michael Jordan helped take the NBA and the sport of basketball to new levels. Winning 6 titles in just 6 tries with the Chicago Bulls as they dominated the era of the 90’s. In 2020 ESPN released a 10-part documentary series called “The Last Dance” that provided an in-depth look at the Chicago Bulls’ dynasty through the lens of the final championship season in 1997-1998. In May 2021 Saturday Night Live featured a parody sketch of “The Last Dance” with Keegan-Michael Key as Jordan, and Kenan Thompson as Charles Barkley. The SNL version takes a scene from the 1993 Finals, when Jordan’s Bulls squared off with Charles Barkley’s Phoenix Suns. Kenan Thompson can be seen wearing vintage Phoenix Suns pieces from Metropolis Vintage NYC, as he plays the role of Charles Barkley.
