"It is not enough for the settler to delimit physically, that is to say with the help of the army and the police force, the place of the native. As if to show the totalitarian character of colonial exploitation the settler paints the native as a sort of quintessence of evil….The native is declared insensible to ethics; he represents not only the absence of values, but also the negation of values. He is, let us dare to admit, the enemy of values, and in this sense he is the absolute evil. He is the corrosive element, destroying all that has to do with beauty or morality……(Fanon 1963, p.41)"

Abstract
In five recent black action films designed for crossover appeal, such factors as capitalism and the drug trade, racial self-hatred, and the geopolitics of ghetto space have influenced the construction of a 1990s black male identity.

*******

what would be a colonial analysis of "Precious" and how does "Precious" influenced the construction of a 2010s black male identity?

Could the African Amorican homosexual community assert its influence even more forcefully in the future?

Has there ever been similarly graphic depictions of incest in White Families received by the movie industry in amorica? Did the Entertainment industry allow African Amoricans a prime choice production of an original idea?

Why now?
