Re: good movie on the black culture?
[ QUOTE ]
it turns out i will be interacting with a couple black people - one male, one female at work as part of a ig project. i guess that's not too unusual for most people, but for me, having grown up in an upper class environment, i have had alwmost no dealings with black people in a social or professional way (except store clerks, etc.)

They let black people be clerks where you live? WTF?

so i was wanting to educate myself on the black experience with a book or movie/documentary - i prefer the latter. but when i think of black lifestyle movies, it's all about gang bangers and rap stars. these people i will be dealing with are more normal middle class people who went to college, live in the suburbs, etc. so are there any movies on this class of black people that would help me?

Suggest renting "Don't Be a Menace In South Central While Drinking Your Juice in Da Hood." And don't be dissin' middle class brothas and sistas...they can also keep it real.
Either rent that or "Roots." GL.
