· It was very interesting to me that in the movie, Bamboozled, there were only three white characters prominent enough in the story to merit names and 2/3 of them believed they were black and the other 1/3 of them had made it their life’s work to become an “expert” on being black.
· If the takeaway from this movie is that race is an essential element of each individual, therefore not subject to changing no matter how that person may wish to reinvent themselves, then the conclusion we have to draw is that reinvention can only apply to behavior. You can not control WHO you are; you can only control HOW you act.
