Enzo released in 2025
A well to do white family... The elder son has a Black friend which is a nice touch of inclusion for such a film set in France.
There are other countries in europe yet to include their Black citizens in their movies. Black People have been and are everywhere.

Alien Earth S01E06
They erased the mind of the young woman hybrid Nibs
just like they used to "convert" lesbians pre-Stonewall.
"Stonewall Riots, a series of protests started by a [Black] transgender woman named Marsha P. Johnson. These 1969 riots are largely credited with sparking the contemporary LGBTQ+ rights movement."

Prometheus 2012
#NoomiRapace asks #IdrisElba to sacrifice himself for Earth.
#MichaelFassbender doesn't explain why he knows the air is breathable in the ship and Rapace doesn't connect that to #loganmarshallgreen being infected. If she had, she might have considered sacrificing herself to end David.

Deadpool 2 2018
I periodically watch this and find it funnier each time I watch it.
Most white actors are #bigots. #RyanReynolds is perhaps the only one who has ever apologized for being antiBlack racist.

Hamnet released in 2025 set in yuk
I'm 59. In my experience of life couples who lose a child often break up and perhaps this movie explains why... finally.
Many films have tried to express the pain a mother feels at the loss of a child; but this allowed me to see the anguish of such a father.

Desert Warrior released in 2025
I liked it though I don't fully understand what it's about yet
I understand its general historical context but not what it means that the protagonist is Black.
The movie depicts the Ganim, an Arabian tribe, as predominantly Black too.

The Boys S01E06 released on July 26, 2019
features the angry Black Woman stereotype. Shows include such early on to resonate with racists when the show's success is in doubt.
white woman Starlight is immaculate; but the token Black supe A Train has various negative aspects to his character which is therefore racist.
