What about bad boys and countless other movies like that? This isn’t the first. It just shows how easily influenced society can be by big brother. I say this bc the reasoning and examples that people give for movies like Black Panther and Wonder Woman being so ground breaking falls apart when you look a little deeper at who the producers are. And who the people above them are. But races , sexes, and even classes of society have this same bickering back and forth about discrimination going on for decades. Wonder Woman had a 4 year tv series nobody seems to remember, but this movie was groundbreaking for women. It’s scary how easily we the human race can be kept in a perpetual state of illusion that have us seeing what they want us to see. I’m not arguing. I’m just saying Open your eyes a little wider. Think a little more broader.

Although, that’s not what’s happening here. This isn’t a film in which either white or black actors could have been cast, but they chose to use black actors. It is a DISTINCTLY black film. So race DOES matter in this case. It’s just that it’s an example of the dominant (or privileged) race not being represented.
