I like how Shonda Rimes always shows that Olivia is a bit week when it comes to the POTUS. It shows that even "emotional" women can kick ass.

Except it's a global industry, where whites are the minority. So, no. It's unfair.

Yeah,I'm pretty sure social scientists have long figured out how to control for population discrepancies with statistics lol And guess what? They still come up with models of colour being grossly, disproportionately underrepresented in fashion and in other forms of media in general.If a population is 87% white and 13%

The truth is, I expect more from women. If women actually respected other women and their relationships, men would be unable to cheat. There is a thing called "Girl Code" too bad not many women follow that.

We ONLY expose the women who CHOOSE to become involved with involved men.

If you are who you say you are:

Yikes. Getting dragged behind a truck is a gruesome act, and not the magical experience that JT seems to be having here. It's often used in racially motivated murders and I find the cavalier use of it in the video extremely disturbing, to be honest.

I can see where you are coming from to an extent. When Precious came out people were complaining about Mo'nique's role because they thought that it perpetuated the fat, angry black woman trope and that it didn't need to be done. I didn't agree but I did understand where the frustration came from. If we had an even

But that assertion was at least implied — you don't want to see depictions of Black characters as slaves or servants, which are roles they were forced to occupy for the majority of US history. And while I understand your position, I'll have to disagree that we shouldn't support a movie like this: the true story of a

I understood your point perfectly, and then responded to it. You are the one who replied with insults.

So your point is that no films about black people in any historical context should be made? It's fine that we disagree, it's just disappointing that your view on what art can challenge people to do and think and learn is so limited.

I don't assume that Black women do anything in particular. I made an inference about you specifically, not the Black race as a whole.

I understand what you're saying. I get it. I'm a black male. But I've seen 12 Years a Slave and comparing it to white guilt-stroking tripe like The Help and The Butler is doing a tremendous disservice to this movie, which I do think is an American classic. Check this one out, then go see The Best Man Holiday in a

Well, you could always go see the next Madea movie. I suppose Tyler Perry's dreck is right up your alley.

I understood what you were saying. My point is that I've seen the film and it is not exploitative in the way you think, as per your comparison to The Help and The Butler. I felt it was an important film for anyone to watch, and I immediately bought the book so that I could understand more of his story; it was

You should really reconsider; this movie is nothing like The Help or The Butler. It is true to the book, which was written by Solomon Northup after his freedom was reinstated, and while it is brutal and devastating to watch, it is also incredibly honest and beautiful and moving. This movie is in a class of its own

When I was a teenager, I was a major shoplifter (troubled home, etc., I've moved on since then!) Believe me when I say that one of my biggest advantages was shopping while white. I got away with a lot by looking like a little suburban girl who may just have a credit card from mommy or daddy (a far, far cry my my

Oh well, now that she is Roma and poor, nobody cares, right? She is not the right kind of blonde angel.

Don't feed the trolls, dahling. This turd spews this shit on every rape-related article.
