Welcome to American cinema or white cinema or Hollywood whatever. These mischaracterizations are the order of the day for us African Americans. And not just in cinema but in every damn thing. We arent able to escape this mischaracterization and we suffer because of it. People look down their noses at us. Im sorry but now Hollywood got its sights on other black folks. They may or may not know the entire history of Nigerian, but they dont care, believe that. The whole truth is not what they are interested in. The fiction and lies is what drives their self concepts. It makes them feel good to see these movies where everyone else is the villain. We know the truth, yes?Anna Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14614002862475111740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1815631206822125836.post-89859442436751593582009-09-22T08:25:39.036-07:002009-09-22T08:25:39.036-07:00@JesusFreak, America and UK have done all the evil...@JesusFreak, America and UK have done all the evil and attrocities in this world and still do, yet they are not known for these aspects.<br /><br />My point is everyone is capable of throwing cheap shots at Nigerian even South Africans, lest we forget this beautiful country that just regained freedom, had one great icon shot(Lucky Dube) because he was mistaken for a Nigerian.<br /><br />We must stop allowing sterotypes be the order of the day. Just like we dont allow the racists bigots in America decide our opinions of the place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1815631206822125836.post-26160629097515515452009-09-14T07:40:54.095-07:002009-09-14T07:40:54.095-07:00I saw District 9 and thought the same thing.

Is it not the picture we paint that tells others what kind of picture it is. Is it not the way we are dress that we are addressed?<br /><br />If we can't tell ourselves the truth that we are our problems and only we can bring about the solutions, others will tell us to our face.<br /><br />I seek and tired of words without actions!
