Talk:Mario Van Peebles

Racist

I try to stay away from making "too" (however I'm not a monk) many political statements when it comes to actors, but this guy is a racist. Watch some of his movies. White people are often portrayed as filth in his movies. Evil, murderous, corrupt. There might be one or two token white people who help his heroes ,but they usually get killed such as Baldwin in Posse and see Panther (1995). Am I saying that he shouldn't have a page? No, but I just wanted to get that out there. But then his father ,Melvin Van Peebles, was known to make some pretty inflammatory movies back in the day as well.See Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song. I don't care what film citics/historians say about the impact the early films made on Black audiences. In this day and age Mario's films (written and/or directed by him) are racist. Filled with hate. Two wrongs don't make a right. --Jcordell 09:08, 3 October 2011 (CDT)
