In a 60 Minute interview, Tyler Perry responds to Spike Lee calling Madea, and other famous Tyler Perry characters, coons and buffoons, saying that the racial stereotypes set the black race backwards. Lee may have a point, but Perry’s continues to stand by his work. Take a look at the video to find out more.
My whole thing is this: regardless of whether or not this is “setting black people back,” why do black people always have to go at each other. I mean, if Spike Lee really had a problem, couldn’t he just CALL Tyler Perry and tell him? Why make it a public issue? This isn’t Hip-Hop. This is Cinema!
Gosh. Some people have NO class!
