Music of the Heart released in 1999

depicts Meryl Streep as a woman cheated on by her husband which does not reinforce InCel misogynistic fantasies...

How times have changed...

I loved The King of Queens 1998-2007 :)

One of those rare predominantly white series especially during its time globally that showed its token Black character only positively and I am grateful for that. :)

This is DiCaprio's first role since Killers of the Flower Moon 2023. Has any other white actor attempted such a pair of roles in sequence?

Boston Blue S01E02 released in 2025

#SonequaMartinGreen calls out racism from Donnie Wahlberg whilst laughing about it like she's not going to pursue it professionally.

The latter asks whether it is as white racists often do and our queen blanks him so he knows that she doesn't fuxk around with racism.

The Taking of Pelham 123 relesed in 2009

A young brother is asked to do something by a white woman opposite him. Ironically he is shot dead as often happens to Black Actors in thrillers.

Denzel holds a gun up to Travolta. In real life the pigs would have shot Denzel dead at that point.

Blade was the first successful Marvel movie. Until then Marvel never knew such movies could be successful. By Blade 3 they replaced Wesley with a triumvirate with two white actors one of whom was the racist Ryan Reynolds who has apologized for being racist in words but not in action.

Taking Chance released in 2009

celebrates the actions of the military but not the persecution of other peoples by the West in which I live... the persecution which led to such conflicts...

I rated the movie 1 on IMDB

The difference is when white person screws you over they can count on other white folk out there to look the other way and just knowing that brings out the worse in people.
