The Nigerian film industry produces around 2,500 films a year (and there are other countries in Africa), so if anyone feel oppressed by watching films and television series starring white people, maybe these people should watch movies from Nollywood.

If it was JUST about representation, that would work. But it isn't, like every leftist position, it's about control and depriving their 'enemies' of anything.
Correct. There's been all-black movies, shows and even TV channels for generations. This is all subverting and corrupting the target culture
Instead of representation use "we hate white people" and it fits perfectly
Being raised to believe in color blindness it hit me especially hard when I realized, as an adult, that only white people have been fed that. Every other ethnicity is incredibly racist and a lot of them resent white people.
I was taught color blindness and I see myself that way still (in the sense that I won’t make a judgment about someone based solely off their skin color since that wouldn’t be Christian). Granted, I’m not blind to demographic data and yes, the anti-white agenda is clear as day. Those who laugh at the idea are either refusing to see it or see it and choose to believe otherwise
we were taught colorblindness to weaken us under a false cease-fire.
I get that but I still believe it’s a good way of dealing with individuals
Is clearly not everyone and Christians in particular are fine but culturally it seems to be getting worse not better.
Absolutely agree unfortunately. I can be guilty of wearing rose colored glasses but I can’t be blind to reality.
And (perhaps) they should move to Africa, if living among white people is so terrifying.
You’d be amazed at how many I’ve seen become furious when I’ve asked them that. I simply respond with “I live in Texas. If my neighbor constantly talked about how much he hated Texas then the logical question would be to ask why he doesn’t move”
The Africans already have to deal with the UN peacekeepers raping them, why do have to make it worse bringing the failures that couldn't escape the nets back? /s
American blacks are 100% all the losers of local African inter-tribal conflicts. we got the losers, the dumb and slow ones.
That doesn't upset the people they've been told are enemies.
I’ve made this point on many nerd forums when the topic of diversity comes up. If all one cares about is seeing “themselves represented” then go seek out that content. Some see it as a victory to take something away. Also look at all the writing rooms of modern shows. The same left wingers. I’m not even sure they would hire a female or minority writer in a major studio if they just wanted to write stories that didn’t involve “the message”.
Star Wars is the main example I keep pointing back to. Everytime some idiot popped off about evil white make fans I asked them have they ever seen who consumes the product?
That won't happen because attacking white people is the point.
Im american of chinese descent. I only watch asian stuff from asia. I hate asian orientated media made in the usa. Its pandering, tries too hard, predictable, and cringe. Most of time its ugly girls too.
For real. Asian actress quality in Hollywood is abysmal. There are way too many uggos on camera. But.. now that I'm thinking about it it was more noticeable 5-10 years ago. Now, almost every chick is ugly.
Do you know de wae?
Hell, they can't even tell genuine African stories.
If they did, they'd be called racist.
I find it hilarious that they chose an N and called it Nollywood. I know it’s Nigeria but think otherwise every time I see it.
I've seen them, home videos are better.
Makes sense.
