First let me start that I am a little white woman from a middle to upper middle class unbringing.
Ok, with that said.
We have the Ted Danson movie about the black kids playing chess
Then there was that movie with Michelle Pfeiffer with the black kids and she was teaching them poetry.
Theres the one with Antonio Banderas, Im not sure he counts since I think he is spanish, where is teaching the kids to dance.
There is a more recent movie with Matthew Perry, "The Ron Clark Story, He work with disadvantaged students in rural North Carolina and in inner-city Harlem
I know there are lot I am missing but these are the ones I remember.
Ok, here is my question and/or statement that I know is going to somewher make someone mad.
Are there no Black men/woman out there that make a difference in kids lives.?
All these movies I see are about the great white man/woman coming in and 'saving' the little black kids.?
