	Token Black - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Token Black is a fictional character on the animated series South Park.
		Token's first major role came in episode 401, entitled "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime 2000," when the FBI considers Cartman's hitting Token with a rock a hate crime.
		In the episode "Here Comes the Neighborhood," Token's last name is said to be "Williams," but in episodes "Quest for Ratings" and "Wing," his last name is said to be "Black." The South Park creators may have either forgotten or deliberately changed it, due to Token being the 'token fl' child in South Park.

	The Black Commentator - Muzzling the African American Agenda with Black Help - Issue 46
		Black Republicans are rarely electable to significant office outside overwhelmingly white constituencies, making it difficult for the Right to maintain the pretense that these craven stooges represent fl public opinion, or anything beyond their own career ambitions.
		The fl bloc vote phenomenon is the electoral expression of what we call the Black Consensus, in which African Americans support in overwhelming numbers whichever candidate they perceive to be closest to their commonly held views on public education, full employment, war and peace, criminal justice, fairness and other issues.
		Black politicians seek campaign donations to be viable candidates, and are thus "free" to adjust their stands on issues in the direction that keeps those contributions flowing.

	Frat Files - The Black Man
		Similarly to the "Token Asian," most fraternities have their token "Black Man." On some superficial levels, the "Black Man" has assimilated to the stereotypes of his white frat brother: wearing polo collared shirts, drinking from kegs rather than his natural 40 oz.
		His frat identity is highly dependent on the fact that he's fl - and he is therefore the unquestionable authority on hip hop music and fl culture.
		However, it has been recently brought to light that the "Black Man" is not a member of the fraternity for the same reasons as his white brothers.

		The token indicates that the simple paths to leaves descending from the node holding the token are short a fl node (initially that is because v was removed).
		This step doesn't change the number of fl nodes on the path from the root to any leaf, but it does guarantee that the doubly fl node's sibling is fl, which enables either case B or case D in the next step.

	noshadowkick.com - reviews: Pitch Black, Vin Deisel, Vin Diesel, fast, furious, xxx
		This is what's known as "killing two token birds with one token stone." Further twisting the cliché, the token fl/arab guy isn't one of the first characters to die -- that's an honor that goes to one of the token arab (but not fl) boys and the less attractive of the two token females.
		I think you need to rethink the whole Pitch Black thing I have seen the movie and would own it not because it was a great movie but Vin Diesel is the hottest new star to hit the big screne in years.
		I don't think you really got the point of the movie "Pitch Black." The whole point was about these people fearing that they were going to die and having to rely on somebody who was just as likely to kill them as speak to them.
