In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide.

Ahh, Mother’s Day…the one day that connects us all. A day where you run down to the local CVS to grab that last minute gift for mom to let her know you care. Or, you know, if you don’t have time for that, a day where you call your mom and listen to how the neighbors across the street are throwing too many loud parties every weekend.
It’s also the day that you lift a rom-com holiday curse that’s been following you around for the last two years because somebody wanted us to watch a rom-com for Valentine’s Day….
I’m your host, Dave, and joining me again are fellow cinephiles and people who also have mothers Mike, Jackie, Ryan, and special guest: Kara.
Topics of discussion in this episode include the odd obsession that half of the characters in this film have with working out; we breakdown the unfortunate wig that Julia Roberts is forced to wear; and finally, we raise an eyebrow at one of the more bewildering messages that Mother’s Day leaves us with: apparently it’s ok to be a little racist.
