@tousant558 - you are right, America prefers to see African Americans in stereo typical roles and get really uptight when they see anything different. You would not hear them say Oscar nods for such a film but atypical mediocre Hollywood film and Actor would get said nod and win. 2013 and still having to read about this nonsense all the time. I say read as I am not American, nor do I live there.

Who else thought the interviewer was baby face 🤔

[@rebeccasmith1008]

Harold Perrineau probably don't even watch no damn black movies. And I wouldn't consider 12 Years A Slave a black movie neither.

[@blacktreemedia]

rebecca smith why do you think that, just because he has a white wife? I mean have you looked at his IMDB? He is in 2 indie black movies this year. And why isn't a story about slavery in America, with a Black Lead, Black Director, Black screenplay writer, based off a story written by a black man who was enslaved a"Black movie"?

[@rebeccasmith1008]

OH OH. ASSumptions?! I said nothing of the sort. I could careless who Harold Perrineau is married to. He's not my type. Ummmmm let's see here...I harbor those feelings about Perrineau from digging up information about his "interests". I'll leave it at that. Secondly I don't consider 12 Years A Slave a "black movie" because it's a period piece. It's apart of AMERICAN HISTORY, therefore it doesn't BELONG to black folk. Black people didn't write the story it was already written/lived (and I don't mean already written by a black man, but a reality of life for black Americans at the time that was not chosen by black people but forced). Slavery is something black people had no choice in the matter, So to me it doesn't matter who produced, directed, edited etc etc the movie to bring it to the big screen because the story already existed before Steve Mcqueen or John Ridley decided to take it on as a 'project'. And no matter what, EVERY SLAVE MOVIE THE MAJORITY OF ACTORS WILL ALWAYS BE BLACK BECAUSE BLACK PEOPLE MADE THE MAJORITY OF SLAVES. Spike Lee's School Daze is a "BLACK MOVIE". Tyler Perry's Why Did I get Married is A "BLACK MOVIE", Reginald Hudlin's Boomerang is a "BLACK MOVIE". Black people have agency in these movies, and they are writing and acting out new narratives of the black experience, expressing our version of life, not intertwined with that of white people because in these movies black people actually live autonomous lives. These movies form black 'culture' and the black experience.Slavery is part of AMERICAN culture and "Black Movies" is a part of American SUB-CULTURE. Slavery movies belong as much to white people as it does to us.

rebecca smith Well you didn't do much to discount my assumptions by saying, it's his interest. But with that being said, the book was written by Solomon Northup, a black man. Why can't a "Black Movie" be a part of American History, black people are American. It wasn't written from a White Slave Holders perspective. It's not Django either, it is a narrative written by a Black man, directed by a black man and acted out by black people for a large part. How is Tyler Perry a Black movie in that case, his views aren't reflective of a collective "Black Experience". So I think I disagree with you on that stance. I believe it is fully a Black Movie, if there is such a thing. That doesn't make it any less a part of American History. We don't have movies that belong to only us, a Black movie is one in which we are heavily involved in behind the camera and/or in front of the camera. Now Amistad, let that be something other. But this movie, directed by Steve McQueen, written by John Ridley and acted out with great performances by Lupita and Chiwetel is a Black Movie in my opinion. Again back to Harold, which you made an assumption that he doesn't watch "black" movies. I think you are wrong, and maybe you could, if you don't mind, explain how his interest would make him less app to watch or enjoy "black movies" even though he acts in them.

[@rebeccasmith1008]

Why can't a "Black Movie" be a part of American History, black people are American?' That is a strange question to me because I can understand 12 Years A Slave being apart of American History (the school curriculum) because it's apart of the construction of America. Slavery built this country, if it weren't for slaves a lot of white southern's wouldn't be rich, roads wouldn't be built, the white house wouldn't of been built, historical universities wouldn't have been built, etc. I don't understand how Love Jones would be apart of overall American history when Americans as a whole haven't reap the benefits of it, can't fully relate to it, can't see the characters doing things applicable to their own lives . I think that is where you and I differ in opinions. There is a difference between what could be considered American history, American culture, and African American culture. African American is an ethnic group, just like Irish, and Italian, that is why there is a hyphen in front of American, therefore anything produced within those subgroups are SUB-CULTURES. I as a black American I can't relate to everything that Italian Americans do. I can't, because there culture is different from mine in some regards, even though they are American. We don't have all of the same traditions, we don't eat the same foods and we don't have the same lingo. That's why there was an outcry from the Italian-American community about Jersey shore and not AMERICANS (plural) because it represented Italian-Americans in a negative way as an ethnic group with an identity they feel they exclusively share. I as an African American could of cared less because that didn't represent me even though I am American, although I'm not Italian American. Secondly, no where in my response to you did I say Tyler Perry's movies is reflective of the "collective" black experience. I said it's simply REFLECTIVE of the black experience. No movie can encapsulate the "collective experience" of anything. Now your being too farfetched. Tyler Perry's movie reflects a subset of the black experience, and so does the movie Black Nativity, when all "black movies" come together in the grander scheme of things it shows the "collective "black experience" because then you see rich black people, poor and middle class. Healthy, sick, old, and young etc. But anyway I'm off to bed I shall continue this later on today.

[@blacktreemedia]

So do you deny that Martin Luther King, is as you stated a part of American History, without which minimum wages, things like Brown vs. Board, etc.. happened. Should he not be considered for Black History Month since he is part of American History while being Black? If 12 Years a Slave is part of school curriculum, what month is it being taught??? ding ding ding. there is your answer.
