bell hooks
I thought it was very interesting when early in the first peice hooks said some like people form yale know they are going to succed and have these huge dreams about the future whereas her students in harlem were equally brilliant but just didnt have the dreams for the future, and in a mild way she corrlated that with not having daddy fat wallet behind them while they are going to school. saying that they dont have dreams because they have to work and go to school. then she goes on a totally differentet tangent and talks about women be sexually abused or raped in movies and she says that people see this to much and think it is alright... ARE YOU SERIOUS!? who in their right mind would think that stuff is acceptable...i think that is a very far stretch.. anyways.. she then goes on to say braveheart had something to do with the director's agenda and that it was made to cast light on a white person's struggle. continuing on about how white males control hollywood... which may be true but for every white male that asks a black person "hey you wanna play a thief in this movie there is a black person that says yes...
