Everybody knows that white Europeans stole train technology from Africans (who had already been using trains for hundreds of years before whites showed up) then adopted it as their own. So it's no surprise they would steal a train show.

Wasn't there a movie where the premise was we couldn't have gotten to the moon without a black lady's vital help?

Stupid things like this deflect from the real issues facing blacks.
Sad thing is, they'd rather focus on this trivial shite then address real problems

i made taht point in the Boyega thread on the M/Tv board
token roles are lip service to diversity at best and sometimes stereotypes entirely
the ultimate irony was that he is only famous b/c he played the role of a fricking token
THE WORLD HAS GONE CRAZY

Also perceptions and biases 100% shape narratives, policies and laws that govern us today.
So yeah these things matter because people are so dumb and don't dare (or have the chance) to interact with people in their out-group that they depend on these media forms to form
Their perceptions of people. It's dangerous, and it should be taken seriously

Exactly. It bothers me more than not having a minority at all.

I'll bet you don't see the irony in you saying this.

we're for sure on the same page, then
even from a SJW perspective, the whole point is to increase marginalized representation to normalize it and "give them power" or confidence or something. adding in random minor roles isn't going to do that

I was going to make a thread, and I may, but MLK is rolling over in his grave with how the right disregarded and blasted his wife for her comments on Jeff Sessions. It's despicable
How much they discredited her to only find out that Sessions is worse than she even stated. Not a shocker, political conservatives have been wrong about every civil right issue since 1776. Every single one.
She couldn't be more right about that small venedictive man. He's single handedly the worst official in the trump administration -- he's worse than bannon, kushner or any of the other unequalifed reverse affirmative action cabinet members they have.
His rulings have a more immediate and direct impact on the daily lives of American. It's almost like he spends his days plotting on just how he can make the lives of minorities worse.

you do realize that DEMs had a real shot to have a real policy discussion about Sessions and you wasted it to invent racism that didn't exist, right?
