This board is sickening and shameful.


This board is unbelievable. The amount of blatant racism and bigotry is mind boggling.

While skimming through the posts, I nearly puked at some of them.

The family is white and the poor kid is black because those are the FACTS. This is based on a real story. The real Big Mike is black. The real family is white. Case closed.

Those who say its about race are choosing to view it in that light.

Those who say "this is about whites who have a superiority complex!!!" or "this shows how black people can't fend for themselves!", "This is a feel good movie for white people!" are delusional and biased for bringing up racial issues.

They themselves are obvious flaming racists because they are bringing up the ideas of race when there's no writer to even blame for it considering its based on a true story!

You're stereotyping loads and loads of people. The sad thing - you can't see what the real point of the film is about. Get real. Not everything is about race. Its about the power of your ACTIONS, and the power of KINDNESS.

These sweeping generalizations about people based on the color of their skin is what perpetuates racism. Its just a shame to see people still continue and support these stereotypes.
