OMG 😂…media is poison…keeping racism alive
Black folks are separating themselves and then cry for inclusion 🤣 Very sad.
Glad to see this.
Thank you to the Norman family for treating black people with dignity waay back in the day. Need you now too.
Can’t imagine who would want to sit through a silent film regardless of who’s in it.
Wonderful , 🎬 🎞 🎥
