Episode description
After a 5 year hiatus, Demetria's Dad aka Papa Lucas returns to Ratchet & Respectable to discuss growing up in "The Ridge" Mississippi, listening to a lynching on the radio, living thru segregation, passing (but not), becoming "Luke the Lover", avoiding Vietnam, migrating to the Midwest, 13 days at the Chrysler plant, meeting Marvin Gaye and Medgar Evers, and moving on up like George Jefferson, as inspired by Demetria's obsession with "Sinners".FYI: Almost the whole episode is an interview. Papa Lucas does not guest star, feature, or anchor.
