Laughably out of touch. When I told my (foreign) cousins that America was only 12% black, they were shocked it was so low and actually didn't believe me. They thought it was 25-50%, given how over-represented blacks and black cultcha is in popular media

He makes a good point though. Why aren't there any black movie stars?

The answer is "Commentator hidden by Twitter for offensive content" The question: " Who is Jim Breed of KS, 3 x Jeopardy Champion" ...oh robot censorship....

Say what now? If you are white, you CAN'T GET AWAY from seeing non-whites in mass media. Recently even my mom grumbled about seeing blacks all the time on TV, and "I'm so sick of them".

African-Americans will make "Black Panther" a hit at the U.S. box office, but how will the film do overseas? There is a ton of Black Panther merchandise at Target. Will it sell as well as Captain America and Iron Man merch?

every analysis Ive ever seen points to the fact that Blacks are over represented in film/media and its actually Latinos who are under represented.

Also, the entire BS social science behind this theory of media representation and real world results is yet another case of the replication crisis being ignored by the mass media who continue to force feed America this trash

Well, that’s a testable hypothesis, no? Can’t we just check the percent of airtime given to blacks against mean earnings or education? Both US and African markets track all of the above. Let’s run the numbers!

Actually it can be a solution of sorts — give blacks a movie with blacks only, to women — women only movies, etc. while the rest of the field will be ok.
