How much does the media factor into our recollection of history? I mean, history is history. Even though it doesn't change, can the facts we remember be manipulated?For instance, most Americans believe The Revolutionary War, Civil War, and World Wars were made up of all white soldiers? Why is that? Could it be because of the media's portrayal or lack thereof of brothas in the military?
For the next week, I'll be discussing different media depictions of blacks in the military and how film may have altered the collective perception on this issue. Also controversies surrounding the portrayals, and films that deal with the subjects in both negative and positive perspectives.
