I didn't make myself clear.

As a woman and as a thinking person, I was completely offended by the film. I don't pretend to speak for black women, but I can only imagine that if, as a woman, I thought that the film as demeaning and degrading, it must be even more demeaning and degrading to watch if one is a black woman. If, as a thinking person, I found the story to be simplistic and pandering, then I can only imagine that as a thinking black person, it could only be more offensive.

I don't myself want to be "saved" by a man. I certainly don't want to be saved by a racist man. But that is just my opinion.


Peace.
