Revolutionary for people of colour for the 21st century. it means a lot to them. its something we can at least understand giving the toxic political climate we are in and black history. Revolutionary? I doubt it. Certainly doesn't feel revolutionary to me or my ilk. People forget that black is not the only color in the POC umbrella. Show me a Hollywood superhero blockbuster centered around latino or Indian or southeast Asian culture and maybe we can start throwing the word "revolutionary" around. Not that I have anything against the movie or the color of any of the actors in it, I just think it should be enjoyed for what it is: a fictional superhero blockbuster. Let's just drop all the political agenda. We already have enough of that in our daily lives, we don't need it in our fictional escapes as well. if more black lead movies succeed there could be more doors opened for Latinos and asians. Its a step by step process. |
