In the old days of the Black and white films, the Black Actors reflected the racist views of how the white world saw Black People in there life in the early part of the 20th century, They got only roles as servants were the acting was a stupid black servant serving the Lord and Masters and there were ask to look the part of a buffoon so that it fits into the world of what the wider mass population expects of the Black Actor in a movie. Gone With The Wind a classic in the movie world with the first Black Person to win an Oscar the black woman servant who was a classic in acting and the young black lady who I believe should have also won an Oscar, but in those days, if you manage to get into the racist world of the early movies you must know your place ans stay there, how times have changed.
