Rosalind Cash is unsung. She is one of the greats in my book.

Indeed! And I always wanted her to share her hair with me!😊

I know it's been a while, but I still can't believe this angel (Rosalind Cash) is gone. Her craft is so underrated. RIH love....♥️

[@epicsseven7686]

Rosalind Cash was a breathtaking woman in her prime and into her later years.

[@ShayTheAntiFeminist]

Would she be breathtaking if she was darkskin?

[@epicsseven7686]

@@ShayTheAntiFeminist irrelevant question. You strike me as someone who likes drama or like to create drama. Creating the assumption that I find her breathtaking because she's light skin, only tells me that you're insecure. And this is coming from a light skin man who's preference is dark and brown skin women. One thing is for sure. Toxic behavior isn't attractive at all, regardless of one's skin color, race and ethnicity.

[@ShayTheAntiFeminist]

@@epicsseven7686 Many black men are colorist, so it makes sense for me to assume that you find her breathtaking because she's lightskin. I'm surprised you're not a colorist.

[@trnigyul]

@@ShayTheAntiFeminist Wow! Such conjecture over a neutral statement. And the fact that you felt strongly enough to level such a question at a total stranger is wild. Sis seek help, thats no way to live. But then again I'm looking at your user name and realising I wasted my time...btw Rosalind was objectively beautiful even more so when she got older.🤷🏽‍♂️

[@epicsseven7686]

@@ShayTheAntiFeminist only a fool would make that assumption by both bringing in an irrelevant post and creating drama when there is none. A lot of Black women are toxic too. This isn't about Black men. This is about you bringing your personal baggage unto social media. Fix your bitterness and get it together. No one is going to give you any sympathy.

[@thigmotrope]

You are right. Just looking at the data, the foster care system has more demand than ever. Covid seems to have slowed that a bit, but still disturbing trends like more infants entering the system. Not to mention the disproportionate role race and class play.

[@loutim5902]

Rosalind Cash made a path for so many Blk women actors, and Actors in general, an underrated actress. While we glorify too many of these wh!te Actresses today, I can truly say she was beyond an Oscar, although she deserved that and much more. RIP Queen!! Thanks to Reelblack we are given the opportunity to see, hear, and Learn from the gems you gave the world!

[@empresserica]

Yes Indeed! Thank you

[@tomesiajones5844]

agreed

[@TheVetusMores]

After-school movie, if I recall correctly. And better than most. At 30:10 or so, they talk about adoption. This needs to be a bigger deal than it is. Here we see it handled _expertly._ As an adoptee, I can tell you, there's no better way of explaining it than "Shaft" did. The whole scene just rang true. Great stuff. Great work by Richard Roundtree and Rosalind (of course), and everyone. So fun to see this again after all these years. Thanks so much, *reelblack* ! You're amazing, and I'm so grateful for all your efforts. You _never_ disappoint!

I went to school with Fran Robinson. At O’Farrell performing and creative arts (SCPA) in San Diego, California. I remember she got married very young in high school. She was very quiet but had a nice personality and humble.

[@patriciadancy6781]

One of my most favorite actors

[@AllikRellik]

Keep these coming REEL-BLACK. You are truly doing your job to your community. Sometime's we need to sit down and watch some of our history from before our time and for some others, during their time. Goes to show how some privileged black kids and even privileged black parents can be evil very immature and snobby too; The daughter act JUST like the dad. The Dad was being unreasonable and a big baby and should be ashamed of himself because he was a homeless and without parents too. But with love and discipline, anybody can change in any race. It showed at the end too. Wish this mini movie was made into a full movie. Much love to you all. 🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@reelblack]

Blackatcha

[@tincredible]

Yes, I agree. As a Black person who had a relatively privileged upbringing, I can truly say that parents of children like this one have a responsibility to teach their children empathy and compassion for others. If your don't teach a privileged child humility, it's easy for them to take their comforts for granted. My parents made it a special point to remind me be grateful, realize my blessing, and remain humble because a misfortune could befall our family and place me in the same predicament as the children whose lives and homes looked totally different from mine. The air of superiority Margie displayed showed that her teacher mom (and dad) needed to teach a few additional lessons outside of the schoolhouse.

[@AllikRellik]

@@tincredible Thank you for how you displayed it from your side of the story and your side of the tracks. You seem like a kind person and loving person. And what you said is very true. Even those we see now on television like rappers and some other celebrities and such, have seem to have lost self respect, respect for others, honor and humbleness for themselves and others, as far as from where they came from and where they're money has gotten them. Karma is very real. So being a good person is very rewarding. I've had and lost by giving. It's better to have lost by giving, knowing it'll always be blessed back to you, then to lose by Karma taking it away. Much love to you. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@tincredible]

@@AllikRellik Thanks for the kind words. And yes, Karma is very real. In the blink of an eye, a snob can end up becoming the very person they looked down on. Being a good, compassionate person will never go out of style, even if it's not popular. Much love and respect to you, too.

[@blackdiamond306]

Kids have a natural possessiveness when it comes to their family what I remember quite well in those days within the black community he had issues of our own dark skin and light skin in many cases parents prefer their light skin child more than a dark skin child and being a dark skin child you knew it was a thing that cross many lines even into relationships where many women did not want to have a dark skin baby literally rejected it as well as men did not desire dark skin women which we see quite often in movies of the past even into education I remember the light skin girl or boy riding on the bus will get the heat needing to defend themselves as they would get mobbed after school trying to go home, and dark skin kids did not get any favor either while they will call the black sheep of the family and everything was blamed on them as well as getting all of the chores and did not take much to receive a beating that would in a parent's career and land them in jail times have not changed the whole lot just more distinguished 🤔

[@averythecoolcat]

In this case, though, I think it had less to do with the little girl being brighter and more with her being troubled and needing more care and attention.

[@brucey1497]

That wasn't the issue here.

[@sandracorley3944]

It seemed as though she was jealous. She felt Ethel was getting a lot of attention. As far as the father when he met her she was tasting his daughters cake..then she was VERY rude by sticking her tongue out. At the end it all worked out with everyone understanding.

[@tincredible]

@@sandracorley3944 She was being snobbish and punching down from the moment she laid eyes on the little girl...before the attention factor was even an issue. When they pulled up to the little girl's home, Ethel sarcastically and condescendingly muttered, "Nice place." It's understandable how an only child may have a hard time adjusting to not being the sole focus on their parents' attention, but this girl's rudeness started seconds after the initial meeting. I grew up in a stable, upper-middle class, Black home, much like Ethel's, and was probably the most economically privileged kid in my class; however, my parents would have never tolerated me treating another child like that, especially a child that's already being mistreated and neglected elsewhere. I'd have been put in check after the FIRST rude remark.

[@sandracorley3944]

@@tincredible The mother was handling it. When Fran was told of Ethels situation she changed. We know this because how she reacted looking around her room then giving Ethel the doll. Hopefully children who watch can comprehend. The movie played out the way it was supposed to. I'm sure they did research.
