That's pretty funny. I wonder though, it is such a clear cut knock off on monopoly, isn't it going to violate Parker Brothers's patent?

I think the idea is hilarious and I guarantee you if the makers would just add a few "white" pieces to the game there would be no controversy. I have bi-racial grandchildren (black mothers) and I still find the game amusing. I don't see a thing wrong with it...we live in a society where this is a reality, so why not make light of a difficult situation for those that are having to live it. I don't think it's pointing fingers at one specific race or ethnic group, or making fun of poverty....so people should lighten up and stop trying to make something out of nothing and have fun with it.
