Deconstruction of the eager to help Plantation negro meme will reveal a reoccurring theme which characterizes Hollywood's single annual feel good Black film: The value of Black men is universally in doubt and must be demonstrated and proven in order for Black men to self actualize."Give us a chance massa! Give us a chance tuh fight and die tuh pwove we deeserv tuh be tweeted like menz suh!"
This Hegelian head fake is the perpetuation of the latest round of Neocon inspired historical revisionism which aims to elevate WWII to the ultimate and most noble of all conflicts. It wasn't. It was a conflict engineered by international banking interests and one in which the US never had any business involving itself.It is currently fashionable to justify all contemporary engineered conflicts by analogizing them to WWII: "Of course we must attack Iran! Imagine if we had done nothing to stop the Nazis!"
"Saddam Hussein is Hitler!"
"Gaddafi is Hitler!"
"Ahmadinejad is Hitler!"
Which is how Plantation Negros were tricked into propping up the current fascist regime, and blindly supporting its proxy - Barack Obama.
To Plantation Negros a black Presidential fantasy is more emotionally satisfying than a black Proxy reality.

Old George playing the race card fear politics.
George Lucas told USA Today that he was worried that if Red Tails was a failure, it could have negative repercussions for black filmmakers. "I realize that by accident I've now put the black film community at risk... I'm saying, if this doesn't work, there's a good chance you'll stay where you are for quite a while. It'll be harder for you guys to break out of that [lower-budget] mold. But if I can break through with this movie, then hopefully there will be someone else out there saying let's make a prequel and sequel, and soon you have more Tyler Perrys out there." (Huffington Post)
He wants you to purchase some hope that he's selling at the box office.
The box office is Emerald City now.
1) Lucas wants you to show Hollywood who's boss by supporting his film. He wants you to convince Hollywood to offer more "all black cast" films. On film he offers Negroes shooting government issued guns at government issued enemies. In real life he offers a Woolworth/Hollywood sit in.
2) He asserts the lack of support for his film will jeopardize the future of black films. Now he's making predictions.
Regardless that Melvin Van Peebles schooled Hollywood over 40 years ago. The lesson Hollywood learned was to exploit that demographic with the newly invented Blaxploitation genre.
Regardless that Dream Girls and Ray were all black films survival hinges on support of Red Tails.
Dude on an Exodus trip. He's confusing Red Tails with the Red Sea.
Yea, I'm fascinated by the amount of black people I have seen regurgitating this logic too. "No Hollywood studio would produce this film, so George Lucas used his own money to make the film! We have to show them our dollars count!" Riiiiight. Show who? The KKK?
Monkeys have tails. So do "red" devils hmm... That's an interesting choice to name a program. Red Tails. Not Red Tales.
Did you know Medea (or Madea if you want to confuse people) is a greek character known for killing her sons? Her choice of dieties to worship is interesting as well... Look her up. Ain't nothing new under the sun. Including TP.
