I was actually going along with this article until I hit this:
"If you want an examination of what it means to be African American in society today, look somewhere else. I recommend Crash or perhaps The Blind Side."
You know, when I want to examine what it means to be African American in society today, I usually just ask my wife. And to think, all this time the answer was right in front of me in the form of shitty movies made by white people.
I stopped reading there and decided that the writer was being either facetious, has shit taste in movies, or is a white hipster douchebag who-- well, it IS birth.movies.death.
Five years on I wonder if he still loves Tyler Perry?
