I wish people would actually pay attention to what they've ....the damn author of the books even made the statement that District 11 and its people are predominately black....its very subtle but if you read the damn books and know your US history....she is hitting you over the head with it...

I said it earlier in this Thread, I always got the feeling that Cinna was Asian, but that is just me and was/am fine with Lenny getting the roll....but I will not get on my soapbox....I don't want to go to bed angry.
WTF is wrong with people? I pictured a gay black man ala Lafayette from True Blood as Cinna. And yes, considering the geographic location of District 11 and the nature of their work, yes the author was hitting people in the face with it. I read it as southern slavery all over again in that district. Some idiots are just too stupid to actually think about it.
