I Am Not Your Negro : I'm tired of films about racism

I'm tired of films about racism

But then I've been around for a lot longer than most, so have seen and heard much more about racism than most. It's like Israel and Palestine - the feud that is never fixed. I think Bulworth's suggestion about us all - from all different races - banging each other until we all come out brown, is the best solution I've heard. In that spirit, I offer up my extreme whiteness to a black goddess of similar thinking.
Or, barring no response there, an Indian woman.

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

But then there'd be no more black goddesses! I would weep for future generations while celebrating that I'd be living in the time of such a solution.

But then againwe're talking about human beings here. Even after everybody's offspring are brown, they'd find more things to hate about each other.

Yeah, human beings are pretty hopeless.

Black goddess is an oxymoron.

Black goddess is an oxymoron.
And you're just a regular moron.

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

I couldn't agree more. I'm really so tired of all the films and documentaries on the LGBTQ agenda and any historical depictions of black people's struggles. It just gets blacks all riled up and angry about their history with the "White man" and stirs the racism pot. Why is this even necessary? We have iPhones and driverless cars already damnit!! It's done. Why can't people move on already?

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

So how do you feel about a movie like "The Wind that Shakes the Barley"?

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

One could also argue that posting this in a message board for a film you don't plan to see is also senselessly stirring the pot. Enjoy your hypocrisy, though.

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

Exactly!!!!

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

Yeah, I'm sure they're leaping at this wonderful opportunity.

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

Films about racism dies with racism.

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

Probably true. But come back to me once you're middle-aged and have seen countless films and you'll understand what I speak of. I'm also tired of Superhero films (although, who isn't?), gangster films, zombie films, etc etc

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

There are at least 400 films released every year in the United States alone. It's not like you don't have choices. But in that same vein I'm tired of white people embarrassing me by association. So, please stop.

Out of curiosity, where do you live? If in the US, what state?

I can give you the one thing that even the great Galactus needs!

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

As long as racism continues to be a problem in America, there will be movies about racism.

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

A paradox!

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

Yes. I'd equate it to the Israeli - Palestinian conflict. They're never going to fix that thing.

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

So in the meantime let's just pretend it doesn't exist? That's your solution?

Re: I'm tired of films about racism

I'm thinking it's more along the lines of, if they clinch their eyes shut and put their fingers in their ears long and hard enough, when they open them it'll all magically be gone.
