As a Latino, the first time trying sweet beans in a pastry was so alarming. I still don’t like them, it’s so weird. Now sweet, fried plantains with a side of refried beans and avocado? Yes please!
Whatever the movie is, the trailer sure as heck set the movie up as a tale of a white man defending the tan people. And yeah I get worked up after dealing with decades of racism and erasure of my people
I avoided it because I’m sick of the white savior/I can’t relate to a movie unless there’s a white, male character as the lead, bullshit that Hollywood pulls. I know it’s based on a book, but I’m just sick of it, and DiCaprio, I’m sick of that guy being in everything.
