Question by finest_man_in_fl: Can someone tell me why they are always making movies about white teachers saving the “poor black kids”?
There are thousands of black teachers who lift up, motivate, and struggle with students in inner cities all over America yet the movie industry sends the kids a “savior”/”angel”, who at first struggles to gain their respect, and then fits in like they figured it all out..If it weren’t for Sydney Poitier in To Sir With Love…….C’mon Hollywood..A little respect!
