I don't watch Atlanta but agree it's interesting at best and intentional at worst to not have any strong black woman leads in a show about Atlanta Georgia lmao
And I don't follow celebrity culture either because I'm not interested in it personally.

I do have some questions though after reading his interview.

"Are you afraid of Black women?

Why are you asking me that?

I feel like your relationship to them has played a big part in your narrative.

I feel like you’re using Black women to question my Blackness."

So the man is on record as saying that he prefers white and Asian women, which is lame in my opinion. But he is also on record as saying that black women made fun of him and weren't really receptive of him growing up because he didn't fit certain narrow definitions of "blackness".
Is it surprising for him to take his childhood wounds and make them his adult views? I feel like that's how most people operate.
I think it's important that we make commentary on why his art can be seen as negative, but not be attached to acting like black celebrities are supposed to be some kind of woke heroes or something. Looking to the media for instruction is one of the reason black people are so fucked up now... But the media is a powerful thing and necessary in some respects as society is currently built...
Someone can create thought provoking art based on they experience and us not always judge it versus what we'd rather see or want to see.

I'm glad you wrote this article, thank you for sharing your work. We need to see more diverse perspectives. (Not saying you are doing/did this) We also need to be able to view the world clearly without being emotionally attached to having our own personal biases confirmed. Communicating in other ways is not really Communicating.... It's just talking at each other. And the world is in desperate need of real communication.
