Life Among The Aryans: Non-Union, Volunteer
Blacks are going to receive $50,000 for reparations. When the economy is in shambles, unemployment is at an all-time high. Homelessness is rampart and even the well to do are trying to make ends meet. A black Doctor has devised a way to successfully turn white people into black people so they can capitalize on receiving the $50,000.
Strap yourself in for a hilarious emotional rollercoaster!
