Howdy! Back in the 1950's there was a popular comedy show called "The Little Rascals." One of the characters was Buckwheat. Later, Buckwheat converted to the Islamic faith. Afterwards, there was a name change to Kareem of Wheat! Enjoy! Always, Gene
The actual 'Little Rascals' ("Our Gang") shorts debuted with sound in 1930 and continued until the late 40's. The Buckwheat character joined the cast in the latter half of the 30's.
