I'm not a westerns fan and kind of agree with your description of them, but there is no way Batman and Robin or Catwoman are better than Lonesome Dove or Good Bad and Ugly. Don't be silly.

And I mean urbanization in every sense. While blacks were present in the old west, as settlers, cowboys, outlaws, and even lawmen (Bass Reeves), their impact was generally marginal. The modern American culture that has 13% of the population dominating TV, movies, and music has no use for it.
You make an excellent point here.
I wonder, if an alien came here and only had our modern media to watch and learn about society, what would they think American demographics looked like?
