| No offence, my friend, but I think this dialogue needs to conclude. Your comments about the intelligence etc. of slaves appear to be, at the very least, ill informed. Or do you think someone who is a slave is automatically stupid? Or someone can only be smart if they have gone to school? Perhaps you should do some reading about slavery and the slave trade. And I wonder if you realize that your writing, in the end, is fundamentally an apology for a film which ignores race, because 'that's the way things are.' We should all be glad Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks did not have your philosophy. Given your comments, it is hardly a surprise you did not recall and maybe even notice the racist stereotype in High Sierra. Sorry. |
