But as many Adam Sandler movies that come out, there are always movies like American Beauty to counter them.
Spike Lee only makes a movie like, every three years. Shit like Juwanna Man gets produced on the regular.
There is no parity in representations of us- it seems like it's ALWAYS some sort of wacky sidekick, or sex comedy that focuses on booty.
Or crossdressing, lol.
