*** BLACK HISTORY MONTH - del IV

in

Februar er også Awards Season og derfor er det meget passende at kigge på hvordan tykke sorte mennesker repræsenteres på film. Her illustreret af Da'Shaun L. Harrison der har kigget på den helt nye film Queen & Slim:

"I left the theater feeling that, yet again, fat Black people did not belong in the new safe haven these writers envision themselves creating for Black people. We are safe bodies for thin people to dump on, but are never taken to the safehouse with them; things capable only of offering emotional support; mammies whose bosoms don’t need a break with minds that only ever exist to teach; holes meant only to provide relief. We are only ever Fat Albert, Nikki Parker, or Big Mama—comedian or predator or caretaker."
