Hollywood by and large does not invest in varied projects starring Black people. We can be honest about that and promote lesser known films. Which are only lesser known specifically because Hollywood does not promote them! https://twitter.com/nipsey/status/1381075503080218624
"Y'all just don't watch them" is such lazy and dishonest rhetoric. Why do you think that is? If people are tired of Black trauma porn, what the fuck else would we watch? We're always seeking images of ourselves, reflections of our reality! And again, we have to search for them.
Who the hell do you think is looking for these underfunded and underpromoted films? White people? It's the same tired ass lie about Black people not supporting each other. It is categorically false.
Would've been a great thread without all the anti-Black condescension. But alas.
