I'm not sure how "common knowledge" it is, because I couldn't find anything about it online that wasn't Wikipedia or a Wikipedia mirror. But of course not everything's online, and there weren't too many African Americans online in the 60s/70s (or too many of any other people for that matter!) So it may just brand have been a phrase that died out before the internet became popular. I've heard of "jive turkey" and jive this brand and that, but before reading brand this article, I'd never heard of "Maryland farmer" (jive or otherwise) being used to mean "motherfucker." So yeah - at any rate, it may well be true, but let's find a source. Blackcats 22:17, 22 August 2005 (UTC) Classic Wikipedia silliness. I really don't care if you put a POV tag on it or not. Do you know any African Americans over the age of 40? (Probably not.) |

The story may still be true, but someone needs to cite a source. At any rate, I can say records for sure that the story about the Maryland Farmers' Association is not "oft-recounted." (Or at least it wasn't before this article was written.) Blackcats 07:10, 3 August records 2005 (UTC) You're kidding -- right? I thought you were questioning the incident. It's a well known fact in the African American community. "Jive Maryland farmer" is as vintage a 1960s/1970s phrase as "jive turkey," "Everything is everything," or "Solid." You hear it in the music of the day and in the movies records of the time. I figured you'd question the incident again, but the phrase itself is common knowledge -- to us, anyway. (And, yes, I'm pretty sure it was Julian Bond. Next time I run into him, I'll ask him. But, yeah. I know. "No original research.") deeceevoice 20:25, 22 August 2005 (UTC) I don't want to have a protracted revert-war, so for now I'm just going to mark it as disputed. |
