This article was quite disturbing. It was hard to believe that someone could strongly dislike Tyler Perry creations. “Tyler Perry can only represent Black men positively by throwing Black women under the bus (crunktastic, 2013).” I understand why the writer feels that way of Tyler Perry work. But I do not believe that Perry intentions are to present his work as being disrespectful. While discussing this article in class, many of my classmates thought that Perry presents his male actors as heroes. My classmates thought that in every Tyler Perry movie, there is a man actor saving a woman actress. I never noticed until my classmates mentioned it, but I still disagree. I have a gut feeling, that gut feeling is telling me that the reasoning is deeper.
