These movies expose what social conditions were like, back in earlier times. Those times were nothing to be proud of, but they did exist and in the manner shown by the movies. If we get rid of these movies, generations from now will claim those conditions never existed. Don't erase history - use it to build on and to never repeat.
It's also erasing all black actors of that time which was a milestone that they were allowed in movies and I'm sure they were paid garbage. But just bec they didnt get to play the leading characters doesnt mean those movies should be sent to archives. I want to appreciate those actors on screen no matter what kind of character they played
If they were not made today then they should not be viewed by todays standards .We are all grown up enough to understand that .Please do not mess with films that were made in different times as we can only learn from history as it is and it is not to be censored .

I want to appreciate those actors on screen no matter what kind of character they played
I don’t really see much black films having a diverse cast... Whenever I see their movies it’s like an all black cast... why isn’t anyone talking about that???
Anyone remember George Carlin's notes from 1989 about the letter to the FCC about preacher hearing something's didn't like? ... there are two knobs on the radio! One turns it off and the other... changes the station!" "... it's called 'freedom of choice' and you can read about it in the library if you haven't burned all the books!" I fear the African-American community will never be happy with the rest of us.
GWTW was full of caricatures-- not one of them resembled a real person, black or white. It was an overblown, dramatic, romantic epic-- that's why it was so great. But if you want to talk representation, Mammie and Big Joe, both black, were the most sensible characters in the whole film.
I’ve said it once and I will say it again, the original 1941 Disney film Dumbo was less racist than some of the films being made today. I concede that the song “When I See An Elephant Fly” does have strongly offensive racial undertones. But the main narrative of the story is against the spirit of prejudice. The elephant Jumbo Junior was judged by his fellow elephants based on the way he looked, namely his oversized ears. The cruelties that he and his mother are subjected to throughout the film is a condemnation of the ideas that also give birth to racist thinking. Judging people based on their looks is a faulty way of viewing the world, and it has caused needless pain and suffering and death throughout the generations. It has to stop before it destroys people of all races. But I doubt that destroying objectionable scenes in these films is going to help. If anything, it will give rise to a generation of ignorant people who will deny that any of the atrocities of the past ever happened, in order to push their own agenda. A better way in my mind would be to educate people as they watch these films that the scenes in it are inappropriate, and this is the reason why.
The real reason why Black Panther hit $1,000,000,000 was because it is part of a very popular movie series, the MCU. If it was a stand alone movie, it probably wouldn’t have been so successful.
Get off your high horse. You don’t get to tell me what “our current values“ are. Gone with the wind is a classic film that has references to slavery. Get over it. It’s a historical film and one of the greatest of all time. If you choose to see only negative things, then don’t watch it.
You use them as teaching tools. I was six when I saw a bootlegged copy of Song of the South. It was instrumental in my learning about racism and being able to contextualize how a publicly held belief could be so morally and obviously wrong, yet be considered normal in the past. If I hadn’t seen it, I don’t think eventually learning about the civil rights movement and Jim Crow years later would have been as powerful for me, because I don’t think I could have contextualized it as well. Having racist depictions from old movies to go off of made it all the more believable that police / wife southerners in general could be so cruel, because I’d seen how cruel their depictions in old movies could be. So old movies should stick. Not because they’re even critically good films, but because they’re effective teaching tools and they’re a quick and easy way to show younger viewers how backwards old views are. But they should be watched with a responsible parent who’s available to answer questions their child may have during and afterwards.
I understand where you're coming from but it presents a whole set of other questions. For example what is your position on horror movies pornography and violent movies? Is it okay for our culture to ban those?
I spent a lot of time thinking about this question. Like.. a whole minute. And I figured out the best course of action is to watch them if you want to and don’t watch them if you don’t 🤯
How about we put a warning and some sort of mssg before every film that has racist stuff in it from back then. That way people know it’s racist and learn from it, instead of erasing it
We embrace them. How can we resent the part of our history which truly resembles the strength we have to attain greatness. It’s like the kid who’s embarrassed of the parent who works hard to keep food on the table. I don’t think we should shun what those before us had to endure in order to be seen respected. We have came a very long way. Hail to those who came before us! The way makers who ran so we could exceed the expectations of those who prayed for a better day.
Have these people even read the uncle remus stories? The book won the Correta Scott King award for Representation. And that award is the highest honor given to African American books. These people are just cherry picking and taking things out of context.
Another story: As an aspiring aerospace engineer some classes got to design and build models for the wind tunnel. As a special project one group build the Hindenburg as it appeared in 1936 with swastikas and Olympic rings. A Jewish professor was not pleased and the era appropriate decals removed. I know why... but we didn't get to have any say in the issue. I once asked my daughter's friend about the Nazi eagle on her t-shirt; she didn't know anything about the history just thought the symbol looked cool. (SS did have cool uniforms... as despicable as the mindset was...)
If you don't like these other Black Films, don't watch them. Simple. Those Black Actors opened the door to others. You will not have Eddie Murphy or Steve Harvey if not for Red Fox or Richard Pryor.
We have made the fatal mistake of trying to go back to things that NOW make us or a small portion uncomfortable and calling it valueless. How foolish and what a waste. We will lose all sense of culture and history for the good and the bad. If you don’t want to watch it, then don’t. You have that personal freedom. It’s not complicated.
We leave them alone, just add a thing in the front and say that we no longer believe in portrayals like this and leave history alone! Jim Crow is over, and there is a museum dedicated to it now where we can see the past and learn from it. I grew up with a LOT of these newly deemed 'racist' movies and it never made me racist whatsoever. These films arent making people racist just like video games don't make people violent. Stop blaming media for the problems of problematic individuals in our society.
History has not been kind to many racial groups, not only the Blacks. Gone with the Wind was written to depict the Civil war and the loss of thousands of lives on both sides. It was written by a white woman and it would be interesting to read a depiction by a black historian.

Black panther was an overall good film but that movie is flawed no matter of importance it may seem to the black community. Black panther could've helped out the community starting with his surroundings in Africa and even more so it was more of a cultural saving that people needed in that universe. Get out was boring thriller that left more to be desired although it's twist was ruined by it's trailers ,it still maintained a engaging premise. Although it does present the statement that these are good made flicks.. it doesn't hold significantly to better film making that'll hold to the test of time. Although there is no dought that a black director and cast will one bring about a film that will leave it's mark for decades to be praised. This really shouldn't be something to be clinging on towards a more progressive society for every topic. The real problem is amongst everyone and everything that culture, among society, class, and rights that affect and causes a great issue that many fail to pinpoint that disaspline and upbringings can forever forge a different future of it's predicessors to further know that mentality better suited is Frankly I don't give a damn approuch towards life better suits me. There is wrong and right and sometimes there is no distinction but to have common sense might enlightened your life if you'd only see that all of your colors don't compare as to seeing the sky take different forms with color amongst the cosmos that yet bring forth the only truth in mind. We are free to pursue yet bound to our own prison.
I think we should ban romantic movies because they portray unrealistic expectations of the gender identity roles between men and women. Where do you stand on that issue? Do you watch romantic movies? Because it doesn't represent our culture what should we do about it?
Black panther is the most overrated movie in modern cinema, creed was pretty good tho, dont like it as much as I used to cuz of the anti gun propaganda thrown in.
You don't... So what's done is done. The question that you should be asking/thinking?+!... #1:What should we/you/I: do when I've now seen what's really in your heart... #2:Do all people's really changed for the good?. #3: What does the Hebrew Bible; really mean in it's precepts on IYYOB: ch 9 vs 24 Remember if you don't stand for the Truth.

Well if we erase history, we're all but doomed to repeat it. Like it or not, these films are a part of our country's history. History is often ugly, but what we _should_ do is change the present. We still have people who think interracial marriage is a sin and openly fly the Confederate flag. Shame them to no end, and we can start making some more progress. Erasing our horrific past is not going to do it. It'll just make it worse.
@ric Gikonyo Um dude, you _do_ realize that Gone With The Wind made the most money of any movie that has ever been released in theaters, right? About $4.5 billion after adjusting for inflation.
@@DarkHumorWritesItself I understand bro; born into hate. Not your fault. Black people need to focus on who makes decisions that supposedly works for them that really doesnt work. That's the white people.
It's interesting because a movie like gone with the wind is one of my favorite i watch it every year. I think what's important is to simply educate ourselves. I can watch this movie while still understanding that number one it's rife with lies and stereotypes and number two realizing that it's mostly romanticized fiction.
Well if you to watch ..Gone With The Wind... I guess you would need to take psych meds and then schedule an appointment with a psychologist or psychiatrist and then possibly deal with post traumatic stress disorder.
@@Abbysyoutubee Please don't trivialize the destructive nature of vicious hateful and evil movies like the horrible racist disgusting movie Gone With The Wind.

Don't use the first amendment as an excuse for owning and watching those movies. Thank God the first amendment is being done away with and we have corporations and the mainstream media that tell us what to watch,say and think.
Racism is wrong but throwing black film depictions in the faces is wrong when they play it all over the radio in forms of rap and whatnot and it’s apparently OK to listen to but not see further more all you hear of is blackface when they always seem to leave out the fact that black performers would use white face in their performances around the same time period it’s the same difference..
