Jungle Fever
I recently saw Spike Lee's 1991 film, Jungle Fever. Considering that I am writing about racism, the current newsletter is an appropriate place to mention it.
I have tremendous respect for Spike Lee. He is a first- rate producer of movies. It is hard to go wrong choosing a Spike Lee film.
While Spike Lee is clearly sympathetic to his own ethnic group, he is far from a racist. He is able to see the faults of Blacks just as clearly as those of Whites and other groups. Jungle Fever does a wonderful job of showing the racist views that have infested all groups. Rent it. You won't be disappointed.
