27228, For real tho...

All jokes aside, I have the utmost respect and love for black women. Everyday I am frustrated with the way black women are portrayed on TV in movies etc., but i REALLY think that all these BKYLN Babylon posts are misdirected.<P>People have to understand that this film is done within a certain context. Its based on real life events in Crown heights & all the racial tension there. Yall really need to stop condemning Tariq and breaking your ROOTS CDs over a movie nobody has seen yet. It is a stretch to say that his character kissing a jewish woman is degrading to sistas. I’m not promoting interacial relationships (or condmning them). I personally like nubian queens but I’m not here to judge others.<P>Basically what I’m saying is why waste time crying about a flick when we have so much work to do as a people in real life.<P>peace<BR>incog
