[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The movie is about those who put themselves on the FRONT LINE. We tend to make "white people" the Savior of Blacks when that is not historically accurate. No body did more for the civil right movement than BLACK PEOPLE themselves.[b] It wasn't some white SAVIOR it was our community facing our fears and challenging the establishment. It had nothing to do with some mythical white figure coming in to save us.[/b] Black are tired of that FALSE narrative...as they SHOULD BE. Give credit to those who deserve it. [/quote] But don't you understand that is the very reason OP and the likes are upset about the movie. The horror of Johnson not being seen as the "white savior" is just too much. Can't you imagine the OP whispering "Duvernay is just uppity, the nerve of her to make the movie about the people on the line and not LBJ".[/quote]
