Cs the ideas about black people building separately because as has been noted, it took two black women writers directors to give her roles that let her shine. We need to make sure we support black directors like Gina Prince Braithwate and Emma Assante. That's the only way black talent gonna be creatively satisfied in this industry.

Then we need to focus on getting more Black female filmmakers. These CACs ain't about to help our sisters advance in Hollywood AT ALL.

100 percent cs. I dont even trust black male directors with black female actresses. We need black female directors period.

Damn you nikkas is lost as fukk... wondering why white men didn't accept specific black actresses. How black people should exclusively support black women and not black people in general, cause fukk Aaron Mcgruder right? Let his ass starve cause he's not a black women? How we should support garbage because were black and we have bad taste?

He's a great role-model to be honest, he's set out a pretty good blueprint.

My hope would be that he continues to build, so much so, that his studio can become a place where he can put MORE black directors on...some of which might not be so creatively-bankrupt.

It should be noted that Gina Prince Bythewood and Amma Assante were the directors/writers/producers of the two films Gugu starred in.

Movies and tv shows
Yeah "Undercovers" & "Kevin Hill" are 2 short-lived 1-season shows I've recently watched with black leads/diverse casts that would've fit in much better nowadays.
UPN is the reason Kevin Hill didn't make it, once they merged with the WB a lot of decent shows missed its chance if ever branching out.
