I am a middle aged white man.
Mine was the first generation bussed for race.
Mine was the first generation to be force fed this crap throughout my schooling.
Mine was the first generation that had to compete in an era of affirmative action.
Mine was the first generation to deal with PC attitudes in the workplace so as not to offend anyone.
I don’t need to spend $11.50 to go watch a movie that tells me once again that the US had a civil rights movement. It has been in my life for 50 years.
No, thanks.
We had the Color Purple.
We had D’Jango.
We had the Butler.
We had Precious.
We had all of those “Black High School does good” movies.
I am really tired of them.
I like to watch movies that are good stories, good drama or comedy, or pure fantasy. If I want to watch a docudrama, I will watch Alien Invasion crap on the History Channel 2.
I take it you won’t be glued to the tube when the remake of “Roots” hits the airwaves on the (Revisionist) History Channel
