Aw C'mon, it's not that obvious is it my friend?...unless you think NYC was the only place you saw 70s Black folks on-screen, you're missing out on lot of 70s Blaxploitation cinema. There was much more than just the hair, brims, white walls, hoes & pimps if you bother to seek it out:
Trick Baby (Philly), Amazing Grace (Baltimore), Bingo Long (Georgia), Thomasine & Bushrod (Georgia), Uptown Saturday Night (Chicago), Spook who sat by the Door (Chicago), Detroit 9000 (self explanatory), JD's Revenge (New Orleans), Take a Hard Ride (Arizona), Legend of N****r Charley (New Mex, Ariz), Slaughter (Mexico), I Escaped from Devil's Island (Caribbean), Blacula (Los Angeles), Norman is that you? (Hollywood), Hit (LA), Mandingo (Louisiana), Dolemite (LA), Watermelon Man (LA), Black Belt Jones (LA), Bone (Beverley Hills), Cleopatra Jones (LA, Hong Kong),...don't consider these Blaxploitation but Sounder (Louisiana), Learning Tree (Kansas), Leo the Last (London) the list goes on.
