"But guess what – we're taking the same abuse. Think about that part.

Well, no, you aren't.

Why don’t y'all go and make a {deleted} series about the success that black folks is having?

Good question. Why aren't there more good movies about successful black people? Thomas Sowell, for example, has had a very interesting life, and he's a smart-mouthed curmudgeon who would make a great lead character.

Or when will we ever see a documentary on the life of Booker T. Washington?

Translaves. Born free, self-identifying as slaves.

Because, sadly, films like that don't make enough money. Which is too bad, really. I happen to like inspirational movies.

The only positive movie I’ve seen was the one about Dr. Ben Carson.

They made one on Clarence Thomas.

After that I would shudder to think what they would make with the life of Thomas Sowell.

Or George Carver Washington http://www.biography.com/people/george-washington-carver-9240299

We need a revival of movies honoring great people like the Curies, Florence Nightingale, Clara Barton, to name a few.

Re-run the story of Dr. Ben Carson too.

But LIBTARDS fear successful people who do it one their own.
