That...and they're scared that they may be tipping over the Status Quo. For example, take the new Annie movie (which I am SQUEALING to see!!) that features a black child. That tips over the Status Quo because, instead of a white child (who was Irish at the time, so her characterization spoke to , it is a black child and it speaks so much to conditions today, beyond and before.

It makes people extremely uncomfortable, yes. Of course. But I've always felt that we're supposed to have conversations especially when we're uncomfortable.
