Name the Strongest, black male lead roles in film depicted as family/community leaders...

What? for real? I don't know, man.

Atticus is on a whole other level. If there could be a Magical Cac, he'd be it. He's the cac other cacs wish they were, and admit they aren't but they want to be him anyway, he's that idealized. Dude's on Jesus power level, film-wise.

Look at the parallels

Both single fathers for the most part
Both college educated but still look out for people who aren't
Both drop jems on their kids and other youth through out the entire movie (most parents in these type of films just give knowledge to there own kids but not the other less fortunate ones) both of these guys have knowledge to kids, adults
Both are with the guns if need be but not portrayed as being violent more as not only being the protector of there family but there community as a whole
Both have this weird realtisic but optimistic outlook look on life, which is basically what a father is supposed to give to his kids. Not some topi can do anything you are a special snowflake like these new age cac dads, but some you can POTENTIALLY do anything if you work hard at it.

Both come from different times and different situations but both are similar to being the perfect representation of what father hood is

















And all the hoes wanted them

Really glad Denzel didn't allow himself to get pigeonholed. His voice and ability to bring these characters were sorely needed.

What about Fudge?
