I'm tired of films about racism - I Am Not Your Negro (2017) Discussion

But then there'd be no more black goddesses! I would weep for future generations while celebrating that I'd be living in the time of such a solution.

But then again...we're talking about human beings here. Even after everybody's offspring are brown, they'd find more things to hate about each other.

Yeah, human beings are pretty hopeless.

I couldn't agree more. I'm really so tired of all the films and documentaries on the LGBTQ agenda and any historical depictions of black people's struggles. It just gets blacks all riled up and angry about their history with the "White man" and stirs the racism pot. Why is this even necessary? We have iPhones and driverless cars already damnit!! It's done. Why can't people move on already?

So how do you feel about a movie like "The Wind that Shakes the Barley"?

One could also argue that posting this in a message board for a film you don't plan to see is also senselessly stirring the pot. Enjoy your hypocrisy, though.

Films about racism dies with racism.

Probably true. But come back to me once you're middle-aged and have seen countless films and you'll understand what I speak of. I'm also tired of Superhero films (although, who isn't?), gangster films, zombie films, etc etc
