Compton is misunderstood because it seems that every time that blacks are portrayed on screen, good or bad, they had to come from Compton.
I have seen movies, Two Can Play that Game, where that fact was completely irrelevant and they still put that in there.

Starang21, you are so right! Plus, James, you are talking about the media - the number one perpetuator of false (and generally negative) images and ideas about those who are "minorities" in the United States. Think about this...who do you see most on t.v. and movies? "White" people? I should say so! But, are "White" people the world's majority? I think not!!! What does that say about the media?
