Well OP did say the past 30 years

Nothing in the last decade..

It wasnt that long ago there was a thriving Black entertainment sector, from film to movies..now its practically all gone, too much integration with mainstream cac society.

I get the premise of this thread, but you should have scoped it to like 2009 instead. The 90's was probably the GOAT decade for black cinema and the 00s caught some of that wave. Seems like ever since the 2010's we get nothing but trauma, drug dealing, crime, gangbanging, rap, some kind of degenerate shyt. I think Uncorked was the last black movie where I felt like it was some normal breh shyt.

Lol some of yall are naming movies about slavery, the Civil rights struggle and boxers who grew up without their fathers like those aren't still trauma porn and tropes.

This thread shows How much we've normalized this stuff.
