The Help

The movie was The Help was downplayed quite a bit because it was set in such a racist time, yet they should nothing about domestic abuse, the abuse of the help, we all know back than if any major events happened they would have shown, however, it was a quite movie which focused on the "heroism" of the writer. I don't think Emma Stone should have been portrayed as the "hero" because yes, I will say it, the real hero's are the women that go through the garbage and nonsense that they go through everyday, and still come back strong no matter what. She made Viola Davis shine because she showed her as the "mother" of the women that spent hours in the homes of the white folk. Now, if you were one of those angry black women that just want to be angry that "The Help" were treated how they were because they were Black, try to remember that we do not always have to be angry, it is about how we react.

If you want to be angry, be angry but it's pointless being mad about something that happened years before you were born, what can you do about it that has not already been done?

It was a great movie, read the book first though, I should have read the book but I plan too. Sometimes things do not always add up but we do our best to fight and earn what we want, life does not always take us where we want but we live with it.

Check out the movie, it is #1 in the box office, I hope Viola Davis is recognized for her role but we know how Hollywood "forgets" our people. Anyway, that's another blog for another day!!
