Apparently the left likes to stereotype blacks for some reason.
"Academy Award-winning actress Viola Davis says “you either have to be a black female version of a white ideal, or you have to be white” in order to succeed in Hollywood — an industry that claims to be liberal and inclusive. Davis is the latest in an ever growing list of Hollywood women who have accused the entertainment industry of racism and sexism.
Davis noted that many of the characters she fit the description for were drug-addicted mothers, and that the “pretty” or sexualized roles were never given to her, even when the producers were black."
In summation: Hollywood likes to stick to black stereotypes at all times in movies. Black stereotypes meaning what white people usually think blacks should be like. Just act like you're in the groove and remember that all blacks can sing and dance.....at least in movies.
