Have you seen "the Black American Graffiti"? 🎓🏀 🚇 💃🏿🕺🏿 Mike McPadden's TEEN MOVIE HELL tells the tale of COOLEY HIGH (1975). Oddly, COOLEY HIGH evolved into the late 70s L.A-set sitcom, WHAT’S HAPPENING!! 📺 #cooleyhigh #chicagomovies #whatshappening #teenmoviehell #teenmovies

Skip the slop! 🤮🤮🤮 The latest round of A.I. reels scraped from our EXPERIENCING NIRVANA and MURDER IN THE FRONT ROW books are a hilariously bad insult to the entire spirit of why Bruce Pavitt, Harald Oimoen, and Brian Lew shot their photos in the 1980s and why these books exist.... Keep it real 💖
