For Colored Girls (And the black girls sterotype)

For-colored-girls1 
This Tyler Perry original movie was about several African American girls in New York who are all interconnected due to and series of unfortunate events. An all black cast in this movie these girls are all basically every stereotype ever thought of by african american females as  whores,clueless,male dependent, lonely,ignorant,nosey.they were never portryed as a strong powerful woman that they were.By the director being African american I would believe that he would understand this an break the mold.The male counterpartsin this movie we just as poorly portryed as the female roles they were thought of as abusive and lying,sneaky,violent people this movie helped put everything racially thought of in this movie.As a whole this movie  was amazing I just wish that african american roles went so poorly chosen.

I like this too. 'For Colored Girls' doesn't do justice to the play it's based upon.
