I fuck with Dr Jason Johnson, and i see his points...it may seem like hes lambasting the film based on the headline but he pretty much co-signed what I said in my earlier post with a lil extra shade.

He said he didnt hate it...thinks its Not the best film of the year but its a good film that fumbles with racial politics, centers white men too much and would be a lot better if it focused more on the black characters. I haven't read the source material that was written in the 90's so I aint sure how much of that was just keeping in line with the story vs the screenplay/directing.

theres so many more angles it could take but it would make a different film and its got me thinking about doing some writing my damn self.

Does anyone (here) listen to this dudes podcast… he’s always come off VERY comfortably "I AM a white man; that’s NOT the issue here" to me… in other words, like most people in this country imo take his opinion with a bale of cotton… a Christian bale of cotton…

Suprised me seeing a recent quote from him for a couple of reasons...first of all I thought son was dead..

Secondly, reading his books and the way he often satirizes the wealthy and privileged I assumed that he would continue that practice and disdain for them in real life...But CaC's gonna Cac
