1:30 Just look @ how they portrayed this bw. The camera depicted her only as a "laughing monkey" so 2 speak. She's out of control & has no mannerism . . . a kind of primitive act. Whereas the ww is dipicted as a whore, but in a soft and sassy way - - - her whorish ways r so soft, no1 questions nor rate her n a neg way, but rather as some1 w/confidence, some1 that 2day more women should b like. There is something terribly wrong w this pic. Remind u these r comments of 2day, not n this movie's era
Sweet talkin', hip walking, jive turkey. This is what she reminds me of. It's peculiar, when a white woman, walks hip like a blk person & use slick talk, she's admired w/ only the best choice of wds, but when u replace this look w/ a blk person of any kind, this will b given as bad taste. One would here that blk ppl r this . . . and that. This world, let alone the US can't get over itself when the thoughts of blk ppl arise. Racism is deeply institutionalized 2 the roots, it may never b uprooted.
