From the 1910s to the 1960s, we saw a number of westerns and period pieces which heralded Confederates as heroes and treated the pre-Civil War South as a golden era of civility and prosperity. It's one of the few times that history was written by the losers. And the roles of black actors were limited to jungle men, musicians, slaves, servants, cooks, and musicians. I don't wish to pretend that the South was super-racist and the North was a world of enlightenment, but I think the struggles which black actors went through to get their films produced in the late 1960s and 1970s would have taken place decades earlier if the industry had originated from the North instead. LA is uh, not the south. I think he got confused because it's in southern California --- Stay woke. <cite>Feline_Heart posted [p:886323698] in What if th...
