I said it before and I'll say it again. I am not watching any movie or show about black pain. I don't need to experience that trauma anymore than I already have.
Some of those stories may be important. Some of them are torture porn. And some of them are specifically made for white people to feel sympathy for black people.
I don't need stories about us dying. I don't need stories about slavery. I don't need a series about black people experiencing multiple traumas through a horror lenses.
If y'all wanna watch it, that's fine. But I'm not watching anything that contributes to the pain that our community feels on a daily basis. I don't need to see a dramatized version of our reality.
I'm good.
