		<description>I heard that Precious was a great movie. It sucks. Once I saw and heard the praise from people ignorant of our past. Fat, black and ignorant is the stereotype from slavery years. Jamestown, Virginia had both black and white slaves. As the number of blacks increased, Afro-blacks, black Indians and the original black jews from Kush, Ethophia, Africa, non-blacks wrote into the system that blacks were less than human. Precious is a kick in the face of black people everywhere. So is Tyler Perry&#039;s &#039;The house of pain&#039; and &#039;Meet the Browns. The men act and dress like &#039;JJ&#039; Kid Dynamite from ? Good Times? Obviously there&#039;s good money to be made showing black men and women as idiots. Then came the &#039;Exploitive movies. SuperFly, etc. Spike Lee and Denzel Washington own their own industries. Help us, please---Lee and Denzel. The N-word was once in the dictionary. It stated blacks were thiefs, liars, etc. Having been a cop, I know blacks never will be able to live up to the sterotypes created by non-blacks. Sitcoms based on humor makes sense untl unnecessary movies relate ignorance to blacksonly,</description>

		<description>An interesting perpective...I havent seen the movie but from the promos I made my own opinion..I didnt look at the movie as a PSA. I looked at it as something with a predom cast to see OTHER than something like...Just Wright or *Icant even think of another movie with a predom cast* But I suppose everyone is going to  take what they want from the movie...</description>

		<description>And Newsone about why white people hated movies like &quot;The Burning Bed&quot; about a white woman abused by her psycho white husband and burned him alive in bed. Why do they hated movies that show white men who are controlled by their white wives? Why do they hated that movie &quot;Enough&quot; with Jennifer Lopez a latina who beat the sh*t out of her white psycho husband killing him in the process?</description>

		<description>The writer of this article is illiterate and possibly lives in a dark cave.  Barbara is absolutely correct.  There are kids like Precious of different races &amp; culture, everywhere.  I grew up between the islands and NY, attended school in Baltimore and Florida and have traveled from Virginia to Utah in my 33 years.  I&#039;ve seen it all.  As real as it is to me, it is still shocking to know that we have kids like that sometimes living right next door to us.  Literally, I had a 14 years old girl that had to play mother to her younger siblings and wife to her father as her mother went out and enjoyed herself.  If that girl did not play those roles her mother would beat her with everything from the pot spoon to bathroom sink(well if she could have.)  When people came to our house, they never knew what was brewing next door.  The neighborhood was that of prestige, but sometimes...the grass isnt always greener on the otherside.  I see Precious as a wake up call to all people.  Its not about insulting blacks or making whites feel inferior to us.  You can only be offended if you allow something or someone to offend you.  Instead of sitting on your butt and knocking down the film how about just say you didnt like it and move on.  It was a film.  I&#039;m sure you dig films that promote violence and drugs and telling our young kids its ok to get into the wrong things in life, but here is a film based on reality and you have to say its an insult to blacks and their lives?  Really?  To the writer, director, actors,actresses and all involved in this movie...Congratulations and Job Well Done.  It&#039;s time for a wake up call and to the real issues in the world.  Precious is just the beginning and hopefully not the end.</description>

		<description>This is stupid because u have so many white movies/books like precious, bastard out of Carolina, which is based in truth, hound dog and even secret life of bee&#039;s which the white girls &quot;savior&quot; were black women. I hate that we as a people are always looking to be the victim, shit like precious happens, I know first hand that it does. I went to school with white twins whose daddy had them doing 3somes with him and his friends when they were in 5th grade.

Get over it people. Precious is a sad work of fiction about terrible acts that happen in real life to not just women of color but all women.</description>

		<description>Sorry, I think I lost what I wrote.  But I just bases of what I said.  Even though I wrote here&#039;s the bottom line.  Black people are afended to this movie &quot;some&quot; because as far as the Black women we have been dealing with this for a long time.  We always had to and still have to deal with raising our babies ourselves.  Now I&#039;m not talking down on the Black man and I&#039;m not makeing up excuses but the Black man has alway been taking from the black woman stiming from slavery.  The Black man had Black women and Black babies and then the white man &quot;Master&quot; took them and sold them so the Black woman had to raise the babies themselves.  And then the white man a the pick of the litter and anytime took the black woman a raped her when he got ready.  There was never our Black man there to protect us.  So that goes to say.  And now when the black man make it and start making money they forget about the black woman and go get a white woman &quot;which is their choice&quot; but if they wern&#039;t sucessful the white woman wouldn&#039;t even look their way. So now the black man is saying that the white woman is more than a black woman.  So as far as the movie, the white people like it more because the&#039;re not looking at the big picture, ther&#039;re thinking this is the way black people are they are abusive and they beat their children and the are mean people and tha&#039;s not the case. Alot of white people don&#039;t even know their history and how they were living in the gutter and how Black people had houses, land, and sucessful businesses great inventors. But the white man came to this town one day and start killing the children and all and cutting of the children&#039;s feet to get their shoes.  And stole their inventions.  And tha&#039;t why to this day they try to keep us devided as Black people.  I guess the movie hit home and we know that the white people wouldn&#039;t understand it.  But pass judgement on the black people and women.</description>

So as far as the movie, the white people like it more because the&#8217;re not looking at the big picture, ther&#8217;re thinking this is the way black people are they are abusive and they beat their children and the are mean people and tha&#8217;s not the case. Alot of white people don&#8217;t even know their history and how they were living in the gutter and how Black people had houses, land, and sucessful businesses great inventors. But the white man came to this town one day and start killing the children and all and cutting of the children&#8217;s feet to get their shoes.  And stole their inventions.  And tha&#8217;t why to this day they try to keep us devided as Black people.  I guess the movie hit home and we know that the white people wouldn&#8217;t understand it.  But pass judgement on the black people and women.</p>

		<description>Be sure you see the March 15th Blackplanet news addition on the subject about the video director for the Fugees Video.  Check out what he did and check my comment out there.  You people need to quit for real! After you read what this man did, you owe Monique and Gabourey an apology for the things you all have siad about this movie.  And if you miss my comment in the comment section on the 15th here it is:

And everybody had what to say about the movie “Precious”? I’m sorry I can’t hear you? What was that? Oh I thought so….because now “Precious” to the fifth power is in your face with this situation. To every last one of yall that had all that crapt to say a few weeks ago when that movie was an issue…..guess what? Shhhhhhhh, that’s the sound of nobody caring what you think!!!! BOOM!
And if you have never been in such a situation to all of you talking about the mother, you need to hush. Period. Cause you don’t know what you would have done after he got finished wearing yo behind out with a board or boot. Fear is a mutha! Stop a casting judgement when you are not wearing the shoes. 
Tell all that flack you had to say about “Precious” to the children that suffered in this situation, and seek ye first the kingdom of God before you pass judgement.
Monique and Gabourey…..the Oscar goes to you for having the courage to touch on a dark subject.</description>

		<description>Regarding dancetodeath&#039;s comment

&quot;&quot;The guilt of having raped black women during the days of slavery as well as destroyed families, extorted free labor, beaten people like animals etc. is still very much in the back of every white man’s mind whether he admits it or not.&quot;&quot;

I am a white guy - I&#039;ve never raped a woman - white or black and therefore have no guilt about the past.  As a white male I admire people for who they are not based on a color but their actions and character.   I can honestly say your thinking is more outdated and stereotyping than anyone I know.  I can&#039;t say I ever thought of beating any human like an animal.  So every white man is not like you exclaim.  You have some serious issues.</description>

		<description>Sounds like what your saying mstae9 is that blacks is on an equal playing field with whites in this day and age. And when the last time you seen a movie up for an academy award where in the cases of precious or the blind side where it a white mother that was a welfare queen with an obese aids having illeriate daugther. Or a rich black family taking in a poor homeless white kid.</description>

		<description>People really need to stop associating a story that could be about any family, race, or culture and making it out to be a “racist” or stereotypical situation. Some have missed the beauty of the story in itself too busy being close-minded. Truth be told..the moral of the story is that regardless if it was an all African-American cast this could be anyone suffering the emotional, physical, and mentally devastating experience Precious endured. Stop making everything about “white” or “black” all the time. If we continue to allow ourselves to be put into a “box” racism will always be a thorn in our side. Take notice with the ending of the movie…Precious wanted to prosper despite the odds against her…she didn’t give up! All in all, you didn’t get that job or house, further your education, or having prosperity you are seeking because of you…not because somebody was holding you back. We all have the opportunity to rise above it…the only thing is stopping you is you!</description>

		<description>I am so sick of us as black people complaining about how &quot;society&quot; potrays us. Do something about it!! If you don&#039;t agree with the negative sterotypes then stop going and supporting those types of movies. I believe Precious was an insightful movie for many, that doesn&#039;t understand how things maybe in some or many homes of proverty stricken families(don&#039;t get it twisted, this abuse doesn&#039;t just happen in the &quot;ghetto&quot;). I believe Precious is bigger than black or white. This type of ignorance and abuse is an illness, which needs to addressed and this doesn&#039;t just pertain to African Americans. Instead of walking away from the movie with disgust for what sterotype you may feel is being betrayed. Look at the bigger picture...walk away with disgust for this is a crime that many of us(people in general) turn an blind eye too. Society will not change its mind of us &quot;blacks&quot; until we change or minds about ourselves. Yes &quot;society&quot; may think that it takes a white person to save us, but it&#039;s time for us to start saving ourselves, and stop putting each other down. Go and help a single mother from the ghetto, show her she can make it inspite of her current circumstance...ect ect.</description>

		<description>What should have been expounded upon is the out-of-control HIV stats in our black communities, teen-age girls (under 18 years) engaging in sexcapades and also with ADULT males, that rape on the whole is most &quot;never reported.&quot; Now incest occurs as well, but I think that other cultures and ethnicities &quot;corner the market&quot; on this one. I also have concerns about the percentage of our black people that won&#039;t pick up a book or take a walk, but will end up eating themselves to death. Take a look around...the diets that many of us have, by history IS unhealthy. For example, &quot;chitlins&quot; also know as hog guts? This food is the chit that former slave-owners would throw away or give to the slaves? &quot;Everything that is good may not be good for US.&quot; We KNOW that as black people that we have a pre-disposition to high blood pressure, heart-disease AND diabetes? So why would this film script portray an obese, black girl infected with HIV, her psycho-social problems compounded by an out of touch, abusive mother and black male that infects her with HIV? This is a &quot;negative&quot; all the way around. An irresponsible black male that lacks responsibility and compassion and a mother that has an &quot;all about ME&quot; mentality. This is why scores of our black children are in the dismal states that they have to live. 

My position is that it is bad enough that our children are brain-washed and directly influenced by the images being put out there, but now once again the &quot;Great White Hope&quot; looms on the horizon. HELL to the no!   

An updated, &quot;youthful&quot; Aunt Jemina no less. However, the message did get out that there is a war on our children and that many are in crisis.</description>

		<description>To the movie haters film yo movie an lets see what you bring, or better if you can bring anything at all. Whites care about blacks?

Were was the love, an care then? The words in the bible have not changed, so again I ask why did they not understand the same words then?Care NOt, just lie, an act like we care same ol, same ol.</description>

Excellent Observations - I have been thinking about the psychological side of that movie but we must remember that Precious has to make a living too. However, I do not participate in events or acts that make me or other blacks look like or portray us as idiots unless they are and intentionally act that way to harm me via criminal acts, for self gain, and they don&#039;t care about harming other for that gain. I.E black judges obstructing justice vs. blacks for personal gain (see USDC SDM cases 303cv12006 and 307CV0074, and USDC EDL Case 208CV04583) where the courts and JSUMS administrators kept black PhD students from graduating at Jackson State University for 16 years and counting. None graduated in clinical psychology until I filed suit in 2003 - not one for 10 years and none have been readmitted that were illegally dismissed since 1994. Likewise, we must remember the GOALS OF AMERICAN SLAVERY as defined by other vs. African Americans in particular. There are numerous other cases of black on black and of course white, red, yellows, browns, and others vs. blacks racism and discrimination that is harming all of us and our children. There is Hispanic vs. Black racism – and we fail to realize that we are all fighting for the same piece of pie. Let us hope precious with reach out with her wealth and move to other positive roles. However, the appetite for those who want to denigrate us can never be satisfied with such degrading views and mockery but still we rise and survive as they wallow in mental sickness – anyone who thinks blacks and other are inferior to the self. 
Frederick Douglas warned us of this and affirmed that the Goals of the American Slavery Systems were to leave the African American Slaves (expanded for the 21st century):
1. WITHOUT FATHERS OR FATHER FIGURES INCLUDING GRANDFATHERS
2. WITHOUT MOTHER OR MOTHERS FIGURESINCLUDING GRANDMOTHERS
3. WITHOUT FAMILY AND EXTENDED FAMILY
4. WITHOUT COMMUNITY - OR INDEPENDENT COMMUNITIES THAT ARE SELF SUFFICIENT
5. WITHOUT A CHURCH WITH TRUE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD AND SPIRITUALITY / RELIGION
6. WITHOUT GOD - OR KNOWLEDGE OF WHO AND WHAT GOD IS - GOD IS NOT A WHITE, RED, YELLOW, BROWN, OR BLACK RACIST GOD!! THAT IS A SUPREMACY LIE.
7. WITHOUT INDEPENDENCE AND SELF AUTONOMY BUT DEPENDENT
8. WITHOUT WEALTH / MONEY / FINANCES BUT DEPENDENT 
9. WITHOUT PERSONAL GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OR PERSONAL CHARACTER, INTEGRITY, HONESTY, PERSERVERANCE, JUSTICE, ETC.
10. WITHOUT EDUCATION OF ANY KIND
11. WITHOUT SELF GOVERNANCE

IN SHORT - THE AFRICAN AMERICAN SLAVE AND HIS DESCENDANTS WERE TO BE BLACK, UNCOOTH, UNEDUCATED, UNRELIGIOUS, UNCONNECTED, DEPENDENT, SELF DEFEATING, INTRA RACIAL HATING (BLACK ON BLACK) WALKING IDIOTS

WE MUST DO EVERYTHING IN OUR POWERS TO ADDRESS ALL OF THESE AREAS AND BECOME THE EXACT OPPOSITE!!!

PEACE AND BLESSING FROM GOD - THE NON RACIST GOD!!

		<description>This jus brings up in my mind what i&#039;ve always been saying about alot of black movies. &quot;Every black movie isn&#039;t always a GOOD black movie.&quot; For the most part, I&#039;m tired of seeing all of the ghetto, dope dealing, &quot;New Jack City type of movies for blacks. You can go down the list, 1. New Jack City 2. Blue Hill 3. Boys n the hood, etc. I am sooooooooooooo tired of those kind of &quot;black movies.&quot; I do like the ones that cast the same group of characters such as Vivica Fox, Gabrielle Union, Morris Chestnut, etc. (Two Can Play That Game, Boomarang, etc.) Even though they still show &quot;black issues&quot; (womanizing, etc.)at least they show those blacks as lawyers, doctors, fortune 500 execs, etc. We need more of that. I have no problem with &quot;Precious.&quot; Although I agree this is happening in every community-white, black, hispanic, whatever-wherever!!!!!!!!!!!!</description>

		<description>This movie presents issues that some may want to stay in the closet, or sweep under the rug. the truth is no matter what race it is this can and is happenning even as this discussion is going on, some will say, this is an awakening, not some race issues, it does not matter who or what skin color was in the leading role of the movie, this is a real life issue that truly needs to be addressed,it also lets one know that just when they thought that they were having a bad time with their life, someone else&#039;s life is worse. It is have time people wake up and  quit trying to seperate the apple from the crust,&quot;IT&#039;S A PIE!&quot;  It&#039;s time to learn something from so thing instead of trying to destroy something that might have so good in it. Like I said, and I&#039;ll say it again: from somethings.: &quot;LEARN SOMETHING!&quot;</description>

		<description>Wasn&#039;t it a black lesbian who helped her. I saw it as a self esteem, self confidence issue more than racial. There a many many victims of child abuse and incest who had their sense of self snatched from them.And no you don&#039;t have to be Euro acculturated to succeed, but you better know who you are, be self-confident and proud of it.</description>

		<description>Why do I think &quot;Precious&quot; is as bad as &quot;Birth of a Nation?&quot;

For the same reason I had a problem with Halle Berry winning an Oscar for playing a WM&#039;s whore (&quot;please, please, mister white man, please have sex with me!) instead winning for &quot;Dorothy Dandridge&quot; (a much better role). 

and it&#039;s the same reason I had a problem with Denzel winning for playing a lowdown criminal cop instead of the much better performances in Malcolm X (a strong, MORAL, BM role model) or in &quot;Hurricane&quot; (one of his all-time best roles).

The problem isn&#039;t about showing our &quot;dirty laundry,&quot; it&#039;s the lack of balance, the lack of positive black images, AND it&#039;s the lack of CONTROL blacks have over our OWN images. White folk control ALL OUR IMAGES -- and it doesn&#039;t matter how rich or famous a showcase black entertainer/producer/director/talk show host is -- they are still working for the WHITES who control the game -- and that includes Tyler Perry and Oprah... 

Don&#039;t be fooled by the Tyler/Oprah or any famous black folk put out front to &quot;promote&quot; the white media&#039;s agenda. Showcase black folks like Tyler and Oprah still play by the rules laid down by white folks OR they don&#039;t get TV shows, movie deals, or big paychecks...These showcase blacks must SUBMIT to the rules of this game if they want their TV shows, rap videos, clothing lines, endorsements, record deals, movie deals, movies in theaters, TV syndication, sponsors to keep filling their pockets with moolah.

Most black images -- with the exception of independent black films made BY black folks and a handful of black specks in the white buttermilk TV dramas and movies  -- show black folks and black life as ABNORMAL and BM and BW as unloving toward each other. For every ABNORMAL white character in a movie or TV, there are dozens of normal white folks to overpower that image, or some moral, wonderful white folk who come to the rescue. 

check out the color scheme of the &quot;black&quot; movies promoted by white Hollywood/media. The most ignorant, criminally inclined, uneducated, and dysfunctional black folks -- especially if they are female -- are usually DARK-SKINNED. 

To be dark and female is to automatically be obese/manless/desperate/illterate/dysfunctional. Try to remember the last time YOU saw a dark-skinned black female in a movie or TV show as the love interest of a BM, or as an object of desire by ANYONE..

My last point is this: the white media doesn&#039;t spend billions of dollars to give you cheap or free entertainment. 

There is ALWAYS an agenda and that&#039;s &quot;white supremacy/black inferiority&quot; and they will spend billions to PROGRAM YOUR MIND and make you think it&#039;s NORMAL to be ABNORMAL. 

When they show positive black images, it is always a black folk who is helping white folk achieve an agenda, or rescuing white folk (like most Morgan Freeman movies), and they are usually black folk who have NO connection to other black folks, the MESSAGE being that a &quot;good black&quot; is MORE loyal to the white agenda and white folk than to any black agenda

Once you see the game, you will always peep game.</description>

		<description>I have reviewed all that was said about this movie and also spoke to African American women &amp; men about it. No one is really happy about this depiction of a Black dysfunctional family with incest &amp; violence issues. These things are real issues regardless of race. My personal take, I don&#039;t need to see this stuff. It&#039;s negative. We need to focus on a more positive image of ourselves and our life stories. No one person or culture is perfect and I know that regardless... we do bad things sometimes. Study the history of civilization. Man &amp; woman have not been that civilized!   I&#039;m tired of these types of stories being capitalized on. Sure it&#039;s a problem to be addressed and is being address therapeutically. Theres are family issues as well as an Mental Illness issues. How many times do we have to look at it or make money showing the worst of all possible situations? We need to know and use the past for knowledge and experience and leverage the future for opportunity and encouragement.</description>
