Movies that feed into stereotypes of us rather than the humanity behind them. There are so many. That nappily ever after is the most recent example of this.https://twitter.com/OkSoMik/status/1043932823818784768 …
I enjoyed the movie it wasn’t terrible, most of the movies aren’t unbearable but they lack so much nuance. Sanaa still could’ve dealt with self confidence issues in a realistic manner. The way it all went down is just so absurd. Lol

I felt like it was realistic because a lot of women don’t realize who they are until they’ve dealt with men. Some women find their self-worth in men. And in that, she found out that her mama was the issue all along. I resonated with a lot of it, so maybe I’m just bias.

I resonated with parts but we can resonate and still critique the things that seem too oversimplified. For example Beyond The Lights. It was a movie with black folk but it showed us in the same situations as other folk and still covered things like black women and our hair.
