'Just Another Girl On The I.R.T.' is about so much more than pregnancy
In Look Back at It, we revisit pop culture gems of the past and see if they're still relevant and worthy of their designated icon status in our now wildly different world.
It might have been my first time watching the movie, but it definitely would not be my last—though, unfortunately for my friend's dad, neither of us internalized the main character Chantel's unplanned pregnancy as a cautionary tale. Instead, Chantel was exactly the kind of Black girl we hoped to be; she was pretty and cool and smart.
"I didn't want [Chantel] to be an appendage to a guy," Harris says."I didn't want her to be the mother, the sister, the girlfriend, the lover. I wanted her to have her own story." When she began writing Just Another Girl, Anita Hill's testimony against Clarence Thomas during his Supreme Court nomination confirmation proceedings was being televised.
